What are Community Shares?
Community shares can save local shops and pubs, finance renewable energy schemes, transform community facilities, support local food growing, fund new football clubs, restore heritage buildings, and above all, build stronger, more vibrant, and independent communities.
Since 2009, almost 100,000 people have invested over £100m to support 350 community businesses throughout the UK. You can watch this short animation to understand why more and more people are investing in community shares to support community enterprises.
