Our Second Share Offer is Coming Soon
We are very nearly ready to launch our second share offer. This will enable us to carry out the next phase of securing the Twemlows solar farm, to pay out more from our Community Benefit Fund and increase our membership. If you missed out last time, here’s your chance! If you invested last time, then you could always invest some more. We are targeting a 6% return on investment and we are just about to pay out 6% to our existing investor members for 2024.
We hope to raise around £500,000 this time and more would be useful, so please help by investing and/or spreading the word, thank you.
