Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund
The Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund is an initiative of the Bridges Charitable Trust to address the funding gap often faced by fast growing social enterprises looking to scale. Launched in November 2008, the fund has so far raised £4.25m for investment in scalable social enterprises delivering high social impacts and operating sustainable business models.
We tailor each investment to ensure that it fits the needs of each particular social enterprise, while also allowing the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund to make a reasonable financial return which can be used to reinvest in other social enterprises.
We work closely with the social entrepreneurs we support to help them to realise their ambitions and maximise their social impact. In addition, the social enterprises that we invest in have the opportunity to benefit from consulting advice from Monitor Group to help them reach scale. Bridges Ventures also works closely with UnLtd, the Foundation for Social Entrepreneurs, to help social entrepreneurs seeking funding to become investment-ready. For more information about UnLtd, please email [email protected].
The fund is currently open for investment. For more information about investing in the fund, please email [email protected].
