Fund description:

The Reach Fund is a two year £4m grant fund that is testing a new model for investment readiness support. The programme is funded by Access – The Foundation for Social Investment – and is open to organisations in England.

Grants of up to £15,000 are available to charities and social enterprises to pay for specific investment readiness support to help them raise investment.

In order to apply for the Reach fund, you need to be working with an Access Point – one of the approved social investors – who you will work with to develop your investment readiness plan and can refer you to the Reach Fund. There is an Access Point Directory to help you find a suitable organisation to work with.
