This means: –We provide NHS Community Health services but are not an NHS organisation – we are free to compete for other contracts and provide other services to the Community –Like other Social Enterprises, we are a business with primarily social purpose, whose surpluses are re-invested in services –We are a limited company but with special restrictions which means that our social purpose will always be central to what we do –Staff own the company –all permanent staff can buy a £1 share which entitles them to become a shareholder and member of the company –The Board of Directors are accountable to members (shareholders) in the same way as all Directors are accountable to shareholders
