Community Share Offer Success

Byadmin

Our community share offer has successfully raised £128,000 from 303 investors. This strong grassroots support provides the evidence we need to now seek the remaining funds required from larger funders. To everyone who invested and joined our project – Thank You!

Here’s a breakdown of our members:

75% of our members live in Shepton Mallet and the surrounding rural area which shows that local people are already committed to supporting this project. A significant number of others who live further away have also invested, showing that this project has the potential to bring visitors into our town centre to boost economic regeneration.
