# Project-Based Employment Opportunities Pathways-Shropshire Limited is a UK Social Enterprise By Tiana Reid | Published 2013-01-25 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pathwaysshropshire-limited References: [socialenterprisewm.org.uk](http://www.socialenterprisewm.org.uk/members/pathways-shropshire-ltd/) & [pathways-shropshire](http://www.pathways-shropshire.co.uk/) Pathways-Shropshire Limited is a social company that has as its main mission to provide job training and employment to people with disabilities. The reason for this is to address a gap in the labor market that doesn't offer supportive settings or a road to take a path toward an employment path that suits their needs. The umbrella organization supports a number of enterprises in order to reinvest its profits toward the social aim. The projects themselves include the [Frogmeadow Community Cafe](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frogmeadow), Green Horizons Gardening Services, Oak Farm Tea Rooms and Shop. Former initiatives include the Wheelz Bicycle Recycling program and the Old Print Works Coffee Shop. The mission is founded on the belief that local business development can develop sustainability in terms of wealth circulation as well as the expansion of social capital. **Contact Information** Pathways-Shropshire Limited [website](http://www.pathways-shropshire.co.uk) ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) > [Social Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialbusiness) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Job Training for People with Disabilities:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop technology platforms and tools to provide accessible job training programs for people with disabilities. - **Social Enterprises:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create innovative business models that prioritize social impact while generating profits. - **Reinvesting Profits in Social Aim:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Build platforms or services that facilitate the reinvestment of profits from businesses into social causes and community development. ### Who This Affects Most - **Job Training:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop online platforms or software solutions for job training programs catering to individuals with disabilities. - **Social Entrepreneurship:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create technology-driven solutions that enable the growth and impact of social enterprises. - **Social Impact Investing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop digital platforms or investment tools that make it easier for businesses to reinvest profits into social causes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Inclusive Job Networks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inployable.md) - [Inclusive Social Support Programmes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcr-social.md) - [Purpose-Driven Popcorn Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-popcorn-snacks-and-gifts.md) - [Product Management Hubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pm-pathfinder.md) - [AI Career Path Navigators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bridgepath.md) - [Groundbreaking Workplace Inclusion Frameworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/workplace-inclusion.md) - [Comprehensive Adaptive Sport Programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/active-project.md) - [Personalized Learning Journeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/learning-path.md) - [City Navigation Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/open-path.md)
