We reduce them.

We don’t place people into jobs.
We create work that fits.

We don’t focus on labels.
We focus on skills.

Who we are

NC: Collective CIC is a trading arm of Next Chapter Scotland SCIO.

Our work sits at the intersection of employability, justice reform and stigma reduction. We are a social enterprise built to create practical solutions — not just conversations.

We work with people, not on their behalf.

Our approach

  • Rights-based

  • Trauma-informed

  • Stigma-aware

  • Lived-experience-led

We believe access to work should be fair, structured and sustainable.
