Social investment for charities and social enterprises

Grow your social impact with the Venturesome Impact Fund

Through our Venturesome Impact Fund, we provide social investment to eligible purpose driven organisations - charities, social enterprises and community groups - all over the UK. This is in line with our vision for a fair and sustainable future for all.

We believe all purpose-driven organisations should be able to access affordable, flexible finance - particularly those who may not otherwise be able to access mainstream lending - so they can grow their social impact and become more resilient.

Most of our social investments are unsecured loans. This is often an attractive option for organisations that struggle to access finance from banks due to their lack of assets, such as property, to be used as collateral. In some circumstances, we will offer blended finance packages (part loan/part grant), which can help smaller organisations facing additional pressures.

New to repayable finance?

Our Repayable Finance Guide shows how charitable organisations like yours can make the most of borrowing, when and why to take on loans, and what lenders look for in an application.
