Who we are

At Social Investment Business, we use finance to build stronger communities and a fairer society.

We work with charities and social enterprises across the UK. Through a mix of funding and practical, tailored support, we back the organisations that make up the social economy – those tackling inequality, improving lives, and driving positive change every day. Our role is to provide the support, flexibility, and trusted partnership they need to thrive.

As one of the UK’s largest social investors, we’ve provided finance and support to thousands of charities and social enterprises, while using our expertise to research, innovate and advocate for the sector. Since 2002, we’ve deployed and managed over £800 million in loans and grants, reaching more than 6,000 organisations across the UK.
