The Community Shares Booster Programme is a funding scheme to support community share offers.

It will invest equity up to £100,000 to match community shares in societies that can demonstrate higher than average levels of community impact, innovation and engagement.

The programme will also provide development grants of up to £10,000 to help societies get investment ready and meet standards of good practice.

Match funding will be in the form of equity held on equal terms with other community shareholders.

 

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with grant and investment decisions made within eight weeks of application.
