The Atlantic Social Lab project in Cork has launched a media campaign to promote the Atlantic Social Lab project and profile Social Enterprises in Cork in conjunction with the Evening Echo which is Cork’s local evening newspaper.

To commence this campaign, the Echo published an article focused on the Atlantic Social Lab project in Cork and provided an overview of its aims, objectives and the different actions resulting from it.  It looked at the main beneficiaries of the project in Cork and provided details of how social enterprises and businesses and community groups could become involved.  This article will be followed be a series of articles profiling social enterprises in Cork.  The first social enterprise to be profiled was the Cork Counselling Service and this was published on the 25th of February. This series will run for approximately 8 weeks with each week seeing the profiling of a different Social Enterprise.
