About the company

Bristol-based Neighbourly connects corporate clients including Sainsbury's, M&S and Lidl with thousands of vetted local charities and good causes across the UK and Ireland through a technology platform that facilitates the donation of volunteer time, redistribution of surplus products and grant funding to make the maximum positive impact in local communities. The platform measures activities in real time and provides evidence of the social and environmental value delivered. Over 20,000 charities and good causes (42,000 in aggregate) have been supported by Neighbourly to date.

Why we invested

Neighbourly enables corporates to meaningfully engage with local communities across their sites and make a genuine impact as well as helping corporates deliver on their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) objectives.  Neighbourly has developed a remote volunteering platform in response to the global pandemic which facilitates remote mentoring and support for those who need it the most.
