Our passion is to engage with young people, helping them unlock potential to bring about change in their own lives and the life of their community. We do this by providing opportunities to work and do something constructive.

​We provide services for individuals and businesses, always using young people and young adults as the core work force. We work to a professional standard and uphold health and safety requirements to the highest standards.
The triple impact of our Social Enterprise Businesses:     
1. Young people are given opportunity to flourish.
2. Our clients get a service.
3. An income is generated for Cre8 through work.
Our aim is that young people move through the Steps To Work process, and ultimately leave Cre8 to bigger and better things.
​
Currently we run two businesses: Cre8 Enterprise and Cre8 Facilities. 

Jobs for People

Big or small we take on practical jobs for businesses or individuals. 
 
We provide services such as:
  • Grounds maintenance
  • Jet washing
  • Manual handling
  • Labouring
  • Cleaning
  • Clearing
We are not limited to this list and will explore any opportunities.  We work to a professional standard and have the resources to bring in experience as required.  
“I would certainly use and recommend Cre8 again. The work that you did was as requested and was professionally done and completed at the time specified. The fact there is also a social impact aspect to Cre8 is an added bonus in my view. Thanks again for the service and I expect to be back requesting further work in the near future.” - A client, August 2020

Commercial Fleet Washing Service

​In 2013, Creamline Dairies provided Cre8 with an opportunity to clean their milk floats. In partnership with Creamline Dairies, we set up Cre8 Facilities which now visits four depots every two weeks. A young person, working alongside a team leader, provide a professional service cleaning milk floats to a high standard.  
​
The work is an incredible opportunity for Cre8 to engage with and mentor young people. The income generated from this project is put back into our social enterprise scheme and other projects and services we run here at Cre8.

After Cre8 Facilities
​A huge thank you to Creamline Dairies for their support of our social enterprise.
“Cre8 offers a fantastic contribution to the Macclesfield area and we’re delighted to support them. Creamline is committed to serving local communities so it seemed a perfect fit teaming up with Cre8, a charity that sets out to offer support to young people by creating opportunities for individuals to gain the hands on experience they need.”  - Chris Swallow - Joint Managing Director at Creamline Dairies 

Cre8 Christmas Trees

Over the festive period, we are running a project selling real Nordmann Fir Christmas trees. Young People will be employed in the selling and delivery of the trees, therefore buying a tree from us will help provide employment opportunities to young people and an income to Cre8. We have trees ranging from 5ft to 8ft available and will be running a local delivery service from the 28th of November.
