Support from Power to Change

We are delighted to have been awarded a £10,000 development support grant from the Community Shares Booster Fund. This will pay for professional advice on how to set up our community business, to become legally registered and support to launch our community share issue.

The programme is funded by Power to Change, Architectural Heritage Fund and Access – The Foundation for Social Investment, and is delivered in partnership with Coops UK, Locality, Plunkett Foundation and Co-operative and Community Finance.
