Department of Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) / Cabinet Office
We managed several funds for the Cabinet Office before the transfer of the Office for Civil Society to DCMS.
This included the £145m Futurebuilders programme, one of the founding pillars of UK social investment, the Investment and Contract Readiness Fund (ICRF), which provided £13m worth of grants to help 155 charities and social enterprises raise investment and/or win contracts and the Impact Readiness Fund which offered grants to charities and social enterprises to help them improve their impact measurement.
Department of Health
We managed the Social Enterprises Investment Fund (SEIF) on behalf of the Department of Health. This fund provided £98m of loans and grants to 650 social enterprises working in the health and social care sector.
Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG)
We delivered the Communitybuilders fund on behalf of DCLG. This fund offered grant and loan finance to community-focused organisations in England and provided £70m to support local services and facilities. The fund was endowed to us in 2011.
