We think the reason why Social Firms need to exist is pretty simple. Social Firms are about offering people the chance to change their lives for the better- to give employment to someone who wants to work but could otherwise be extremely unlikely to. 

When you look further, there are actually far-reaching and compelling reasons as to why we need Social Firms.

• To increase Employment and Employability
  
  
• To improve individual's Health and reduce associated health costs
  
  
• There are a number of Economic benefits to both the individual and society
  
  
• Social Impact - the softer benefits that come from being employed and earning a real wage
  
  
• Sustainability - Social Firms can be an efficient employability solution
