On the 16th March 2022 the Greater Manchester Combined Authority launched Manchester’s first Community Wealth Hub. The development of this hub arose from a recommendation of the Greater Manchester Independent Inequalities Commission to “Create a Community Wealth Hub to support and grow co-operatives, mutuals, social and community enterprises”. The Hub aims to promote and develop networks for support, provide advice, attract investments, spark innovation, and impact policy.
The design of the Hub will be a participatory process, involving local people and organisations as a way to tackle poverty and inequality in local areas. In March, the Hub published a call for proposals and inputs from people running social enterprises, trading charities, worker co-ops, consumer co-ops, social firms and other regenerative businesses.
