Case Study:
Glossopdale Furniture Project
Glossopdale Furniture Project is a High Peak based organisation exemplifying many of the characteristics of a Social Enterprise. 
The social purposes of the project involve collecting discarded furniture and selling it at prices affordable by people on low income.
Materials from any unusable furniture are reused to make useful objects, which are sold to generate further income.
Furniture refurbishment and reuse creates employment and training opportunities, which are directed toward social inclusion.
The aim is to reinvest profits for the purposes of the business and the community served. The project is sustainable, socially inclusive and environmental, with social ownership and community accountability.
