🎉Launching our new website!🎉
Published on November 9, 2023 by The Social Change Nest

Hey there,

We hope you’re all doing well, and that you’ve been wrapping up warm now that the cold weather has struck us! đŸ„¶

We're thrilled to announce the exciting launch of The Social Change Nest's new website and revamped social media channels this week! 🎉

Since 2020, we've had the privilege of collaborating with over 300 incredible changemakers like yourselves and directing over £16 million towards the communities that need it most. It’s been a blast, and we’re so excited to share our story so we can support even more groups. 

Say hello to our brand new website, complete with a new makeover and newsletter that spills on all the cool ways we're shaking things up in the funding landscape. From funders to community groups, individual changemakers, and beyond—we've got a story to tell.

A heartfelt shout-out to each of you for being an integral part of our remarkable journey! đŸ«¶
