    We connect and support Social Founders

    Together we can grow our impact

    We are a global network of founders across the charity, social enterprise, NGO, non-profit and community sectors.

    We support, resource and connect with each other online and face to face to grow our skills and impact, and to inspire current and future social founders.

    "The team helped Street Storage build a skeleton Strategy Plan for the coming 5 years, looking at different parts of the organisation, and providing in depth, useful and appropriate advice to a small charity like ours.

    I am much less overwhelmed by Strategic Planning as a result!

    A big thank you must go to the Social Founder Network for facilitating this and for always being an advocate for what we do. We are so grateful!”

    Rachel Woolf, Founder & Director, Street Storage charity.
