Social Enterprise Yorkshire and Humber

A morning spent at the BBC, featuring on the True Grit show with Kat Cowan. We spoke about Getting Clean, addiction, prison, and homelessness. The show highlights people who have navigated profound hardship, trauma, or unexpected life-altering events and emerged stronger on the other side. The core message of the segment is to showcase how individuals turn their lived experience and personal survival into a source of hope and support for others in their community.

We spoke of the power of Lived Experience Recovery, a solution to problems that rip through cities and towns alike.
A new approach to delivering support and community regeneration: creating role models for our young people, and leaders among those who have battled trauma and ultimately triumphed.

🚩🚩 RED FLAGS – SAME-SEX VERSION 🚩🚩

On 22nd October at 7pm, we’ll be performing our same-sex version of Red Flags in Leeds.

Abuse can happen in all types of relationships, and it’s important that we tell those stories and create spaces where everyone can recognise the signs of unhealthy and abusive behaviour.

Our interactive theatre show explores red flags, coercive control and unhealthy relationships — while encouraging audiences to speak up, support others and challenge harmful behaviours.

Today we broke our record for the most sales in one day creating 50 paid hours of employment for someone in recovery from addiction.

We featured on the Jeremy Vine Show and I was interviewed by the lovely Tina Daheley at the BBC studios in London. We spoke about how Getting Clean was created and formed through frustration at the lack of effective support available for those trapped in vicious cycles of addiction and homelessness.
As we continue to build the UK’s CLEANEST Soap brand it amazes me to receive such positive encouragement from members of the public. I was actually stopped four times by supporters in the street wishing us success and showing appreciation for our work.

Our mission is to ensure that every addict in the UK has access to peer support and employment opportunities and today we took another major step forward receiving national recognition.

Production Manager

LS5 Leeds

£28,000 - £34,000 per year 

On-site

Permanent

Play a key role in building a growing, purpose-led and unique business with genuine social impact!

We need somebody to take ownership of day-to-day soap production, turning a growing order book into consistently high-quality products that leave the factory on time and in full.

You’ll run the production floor, plan output, manage ingredients and stock, maintain quality and lead a small team that includes people building skills, confidence and routine through recovery.

This isn’t a job for someone who wants to manage production from behind a spreadsheet. You’ll be expected to lead it, improve it and, when necessary, roll your sleeves up and get stuck in yourself.

Please note: you must be authorised to work in the UK
