I'd like to please understand What's the difference between a CIC and a social enterprise?

[@Heathers_creates]

Thank you very useful

[@PaulHesp]

This seems to be factually incorrect. Presenters stated/ agreed that at least 3 Directors are needed to set up a CIC. My understanding is that only one is required if CIC is limited by shares, or 2 if limited by guarantee.

[@peterjonesz]

elsewhere ive seen it stated 3 with 2 can be related 1 not

Thanks for the video. I have been studying counselling for a while and would like to open a start CIC so i start the process off becoming self employed. Not sure how to though.

[@CarlSmith-ri2yf]

Thanks for the video. I am trying to open a charity but not sure what a governing document is and don’t have any trustees. Could you help with this ? I would be super grateful. Thanks

Do I need to pay the rest of the Directors? If I form a CIC company
