About us
Our vision
We believe that purposeful businesses and social enterprises can help solve some of our region’s biggest problems so that everyone can thrive. By channelling investment in the right way to the right places, we can see regional priorities met and a more resilient economy emerge.
Our approach
We channel capital into the regional economy in a way that increases its social, economic and environmental benefits. Our regional insight and connections create a healthier economy, which enables impact to multiply naturally, giving organisations a better chance of delivering on revenue and impact goals.
The story so far
Founded in 2015, BBRC has evolved into a proven leader in place-based impact investment, with over £50m invested, leveraged and brokered into deals across the broad areas of housing, community and wellbeing, and net zero.
BBRC is committed to backing Bristol’s social and environmental businesses, with our £10m City Funds 1.0 reaching its final stages of deployment. We have an ambitious five-year strategy to deliver a Regional Net Zero Fund, a Regional Housing Impact Fund and to increase investments and impacts tenfold.
