Flo’s Social Enterprise Incubation

Flo’s is currently supporting new social enterprises, helping them to get off the ground by providing them with expert support, advice and staff capacity. We are currently ‘incubating’ two new food based social enterprises – The Damascus Rose Bakery and No Vice Ice. We are currently converting the old kiosk into a shared kitchen space for these two food based enterprises and we will be supporting their journey as they develop! To find out more about these two enterprises, see below.

No Vice Ice CIC

No Vice Ice is a Community Interest Company set up by Ella and her partner Katy, to empower people to have conversations about the links between food, health and sustainability, in ways that are fun, supportive and inclusive for all.

Using creative interactive ice-lolly making sessions, we aspire to engage people in supportive and educational discussions about the difficult nexus that exists across food affordability, healthy eating and sustainability.

No Vice Ice will also be creating delicious, ‘vice free’ ice lollies using sustainably sourced and surplus fruit – these will be available to buy and enjoy in Oxford from Spring/Summer 2021!
Off the back of their participatory workshops, they will be developing a range of ‘nutritionally alternative’ ice lollies, that would be suitable for people using nutrition as a way of managing their health conditions (for example, a Ketogenic lolly that would be suitable for people with Diabetes or Epilepsy).

Damascus Rose Kitchen

The Syrian Sisters are community group which supports refugee women living in East Oxford. The group is establishing the Damascus Rose Bakery, which will cook delicious Syrian goods whilst also providing employment and training opportunities for refugee women as well as a cultural exchange. The Syrian Sisters are currently running a pop up kitchen in our Cafe at Flo’s on a Sunday.
