Advertisement ClearlySo Newsletter | June 1st 2012    Hello, Welcome to the ClearlySo Newsletter, our regular update on everything happening in the social business and enterprise sector. We’ve got lots of news this week starting with the Investment and Contract Readiness Fund. Managed by The Social Investment Business, this is a great project to try and get new social ventures ship shape for capital and competing for public sector contracts. Meanwhile, head on over to www.sbc12.co.uk where you’ll find our new website dedicated to the Social Business Conference 2012. This is the place to be for anyone interested in the wonderful world of social business and enterprise. All that plus our usual mix of jobs, blogs, upcoming events and a chance to join the team at ClearlySo. Have a great week. Jonny Kates We spoke to Amy Hale from Food Cycle Bristol to find out how students have been feeding the local community on wasted food for the past three years. Amy had some fantastic words of advice for any other students thinking of setting up their own social enterprise. Contact us if you would like to be featured on our next newsletter. Best of the blog Ethics and Fashion Escaping the City New Horizons Ethics and fashion might not seem like perfect bedfellows. Molly Hayward of sustainable fashion label Rebecca Street talks about the challenge of persuading people that good fashion can also be socially valuable. Escape the City is a great organisation helping people who work in the square mile to follow their dreams and at last do something useful with their lives. Rodney Schwartz recently spoke at one of their events and you can see what he said here. Triodos and the Greater Merseyside Connexions Partnership have recently announced a new social impact bond aimed at getting young people in to training and employment. We asked Cecilia Crossley of from babies with love to give us her two cents.
