Parliament
The All Party Parliamentary Group for Inclusive Entrepreneurship was set up in July 2020 to ensure that Parliament is fully informed on what is needed to create and sustain the most beneficial conditions for inclusive economic growth.
Now merged with the APPG for Disability. Details to follow.
The APPG for Inclusive Entrepreneurship is chaired by Dr Lisa Cameron MP.
The Secretariat for the APPG for Inclusive Entrepreneurship is provided by Universal Inclusion, and supported by Savvitas.
Its goals are to stimulate, encourage and nurture inclusive entrepreneurship throughout the country, and to engage with entrepreneurs who have protected characteristics, particularly disabled entrepreneurs.
Secretariat: Universal Inclusion. Supported by: Savvitas.
There are many opportunities to get involved in the APPG for Inclusive Entrepreneurship and its Programme of Works.

“There are significant barriers for people with protected characteristics who wish to move into enterprise - they face challenges in areas such as sector-specific support in business, access to finance and markets, health and well-being. I would like to see more being made available to this sector and to engage, stimulate, encourage & nurture #InclusiveEntrepreneurship.”
We are delighted to be collaborating with Universal Inclusion and Facebook as part of our continued commitment to changing the narrative on disability and entrepreneurship showcasing the sector and advising on how it can be upscaled.
