Join our unique UK environment and sustain your activities making impact.
Since 2014 we've been striving to stop community-led provisions making real impact, from "dying on the vine".
The Issue:
Across the UK, too many charities & social enterprises who have proven services/programmes are being starved of the resources needed to sustain and grow impact within communities!
These are important community providers living hand-to-mouth, they spend hours per week seeking and applying for grants to fund their activities (also re-inventing/re-branding what they do in order to meet different funding criteria).
They are also submitting weekly data and reports to a range of small funders to meet the criteria, whilst trying to also keep their activities (and teams) going.
This is not a sustainable way to change society, and protect the impact these providers are making for us.
We created the ecosystem and embedded it across the UK, to provide a new way to support organisations making a dual impact.
Our ecosystem is purpose built for charity & social enterprises, who join as members within our Social Impact Register.
The Register is a digital space, providing community organisations a platform to engage and collaborate with our audience of business members. These collaborations then connect-into supply contracts with police, councils, NHS, fire and criminal justice services in 12 UK regions.
Members enjoy FOUR areas of support...
Membership of our Social Impact Register is fully funded for charities & social enterprises.
The Register is exclusive to the Pluggin Ecosystem. Our objective is to provide a new alternative for charities & social enterprises to sustain and grow their provisions and maintain the dual impact they make.
No more chasing grants, re-inventing to meet criteria and jumping through funder hoops.
