Created by Nesta in partnership with UnLtd, the Rooted guide provides clear, step-by-step practical advice and resources for people considering starting up their own social or community-run venture.
People retiring from the workplace often feel that their views are no longer heard, or that they have been placed on the scrap heap. However, we know that individuals want to continue to earn, learn and use their skills and expertise in new creative and enterprising ways.
That's why we have created this resource, to support people who have the passion and seed of a good idea, but are unsure where to start.

This free guide will help you clarify your thinking and communicate your ideas effectively, through: assessing your personal skills, knowledge and values; exploring the viability of the idea by defining what it is you want to do and why; then finally investigating how to ensure your idea becomes a sustainable social venture, rooted in your community.
