Aims of the Community Shares Booster Fund

The Booster Fund supports community businesses in England with community share offers.

The Booster Fund currently provides matched equity investment to support communities in England to take ownership of spaces and services that matter to the community. 

Our support includes the very early stages of exploring whether community shares funding is the right choice for your business. 

We are especially interested in exploring innovative ways of using community shares, whether that be supporting a wider range of people to invest, enabling younger people to invest and get involved in the governance of these local businesses, or bringing more key services into community ownership.
