Neighbourly, a community investment and engagement platform for business, has raised an additional £1.6 million in an accelerator investment round led by Guinness Ventures.
This latest funding round takes the total investment raised to date by the company to £8 million ($10 million).
Founded in 2014, Neighbourly matches businesses with local good causes to ensure that donations of volunteer time, financial support or surplus products reach those who need it most, creating positive and measurable impact for organisations, communities and the planet.
The investment will help further expand the team and accelerate both brand and product development at a critical time when businesses are increasingly needing to deliver on ESG objectives as part of their overall strategy. ESG has become even more of a focus for business following the impact of Covid-19, the climate crisis, and now the cost of living crisis.
