Resonance helps social enterprises raise capital from like-minded investors. We create impact investment funds, which deliver financial return and targeted social impact.

We believe that change is possible and that one day, aligning profits with social impact will be the norm.

As a social impact investment company with 20 years of experience working with social enterprises throughout the UK, Resonance has built and manages 11 funds and currently has c£350m under management. Our funds focus on tackling major societal issues, with particular expertise in homelessness, poverty, community-led projects, health & wellbeing and education.

In addition to our investment funds, we also have frequent opportunities to invest directly into high impact social enterprises - also generating a risk-adjusted return.
