Who we are and what we do
Power to Change is an independent trust, whose funding is used to strengthen community businesses across England. We received a £150 million endowment in 2015 from Big Lottery Fund. At a time when many parts of the UK face cuts, neglect and social problems, we are helping local people come together to take control, and make sure their local areas survive and stay vibrant.
No one understands a community better than the people who live there. In some areas, people are already coming together to solve problems for themselves, and we support them as they run businesses which help their whole community and recycles money back into the local area. Community businesses revive local assets, protect the services people rely on, and address local needs.
Our vision and mission
Our overall vision is to achieve ‘better places through community business,’ a vision which we will deliver by pursuing our mission which is to ‘back people to build successful local businesses for the benefit of their communities’. Power to Change has been established as a spend-down Trust, with the aim of significantly accelerating the growth and impact of community business in England, thereby creating a sustainable legacy of robust community businesses which will endure well beyond the Trust’s existence.
Our Objectives
- To grow the community business sector such that there are a greater number of high impact, sustainable community businesses at the end of 10 years
- To transform places through the positive economic, social and environment impact of community businesses
- To make the case to government, business, consumers and other funders that community business is a powerful force for change such that they increase their investment in community business.
Our values
Bold: We experiment, take risks and test new ideas. We move quickly to take advantage of opportunities.
Informed: We learn from research and from our delivery. We are responsive and adapt to what we have learned.
Open: We are transparent about our decision-making. We share knowledge and learning including what has not worked.
