Congratulations on having created such a wonderful project here in the heart of Eryri. Ths is an inspiring story and shows how such initiatives are possible wherever there is determination, a sense of place and a strong connection to the local community. I hope this book helps spread the news throughout Wales and beyond about the potential and positive impact of social businesses.

For us as trainers and for our many participants, Trigonos provided a living example of what happens when there is clarity of intention, combined with deep care and attentiveness. This powerful story of the creation and development of a social business offers vital pointers for how to create the kind of future we need.

As the authors remind us, Ben Okri writes: 'Hospitality begins in the soul.' The words soul and soil are very close and this remarkable story of Trigonos explores both through a threefold lens that reveals how healing and dignity have been restored to the land and to the local community as well as those who visit from afar.

Thank you for writing a book on social business that aspires to inspire, not teach! For those like me, who have had the privilege of spending time in the wonderful setting of Trigonos, this publication brings alive the importance of social business as a model for the future. It also reveals the way in which the founder-directors worked so effectively alongside each other as a 'triumvirate' for over 20 years in a unique partnership.
- Bulbul Baksi, Partnership Brokers Association
The book deserves a wide reading for there are many lessons to be learnt from the founders' reflections on what was done and how they worked together and how they forged links with the local Welsh-speaking community. The colour photographs featured in the book are a welcome and enhancing addition.
