HBV Enterprise works with a range of local organisations dedicated to community development within Hackney.

Fit for Enterprise: Supporting Hackney's Community, Voluntary and Social Sector
Our successful work on this project has now finished; with support from the European Regional Development Fund, we helped to create over 20 new enterprises locally, and created many more new jobs for local people as well.

Need our help? We still provide help to social and community sector enterprises that want to start or grow. If you would like our help, just get in touch.


Training & Employment Support Programme ('TESP')
TESP is a project funded by the European Social Fund. Working with our partners Kingsland Community Regeneration Trust and Shoreditch Trust, we aim to provide training and local jobs for local people in local businesses for local people. For more information, ask an adviser at HBV.
