CIC

Leeanne Davis Operational Director at Rooted Paths CIC Posted 10 months ago

Hello everyone,
I have co-founded a CIC to support asylum seekers and refugees by teaching them English in community centres as informal classes.
I'm curious to find out how other CICs/CIOs partnered with other companies or local councils. I want to let the council especially know that we're offering free English classes to the community since there are always long waits to get into the formal classes. We're here to be a buffer. 
I am currently finalising the CIC's website, so should I wait until that's all done? Or should I just go ahead and approach the council that our CIC exists? What have you done in your experience in partnering with others? 
Thanks in advance!
Leeanne
