1.5. Nigel Kershaw OBE, The Big Issue Group: The role of social enterprises in tackling poverty in the UK

Nigel Kershaw OBE is the Chair of The Big Issue Group, a social enterprise providing business solutions for people impacted by poverty and homelessness in the UK.

Over the past 30 years, The Big Issue Group's magazine has become a household name, helping more than 100,000 people affected by poverty to earn well over £100 million. 

As you'll hear in this conversation, Nigel is as knowledgeable and grounded as gets. He talks about:

  • the role of social enterprises in tackling social inequality; 
  • the wide-reaching impact of the Big Issue Group across the world;  
  • why he isn't a "typical finance person": and
  • why there is no such thing as failure.

For any budding entrepreneurs or curious listeners, this is just the episode for you. Packed full of practical advice, a wealth of experience and plenty of laughs, you're guaranteed to come away from this episode with lots of inspiration and handy tips.
