[Cafe Create](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cafe-hunt) is a social enterprise in the UK that provides elegantly presented dishes both in their [Leeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enigmaz) restaurant and through their catering services in Sunderland, Manchester, Doncaster and Leeds. Their social good component comes in through the staff they employ -- they offer "training and employment opportunities for people who have been homeless, marginalised or vulnerable."

The restaurant has sophisticated decor with splashes of bright colour -- like chairs in different shades and server t-shirts that pop against dark hardwood floors -- to add vibrant personality to the dining establishment.

They recently launched Create Social Good, which is explained in more detail in the above video. Essentially, Cafe Create's latest goal is to connect high net worth individuals with the social enterprise community.
