We were initially financed in 2021 with a community sharer, which raised £158,000 from 385 shareholders. We are modelled to return these shares from retained profits over the next 25 years.
At this stage the business is running sustainably and we do not require further finance, however we are aware that lots of people missed out on the original share offer. In particular we have new residents in the community, and we have volunteers who are not members. These people currently have no role in the governance of Heptonstall Community Assets.
So in order to be able to invite the rest of our community into membership, we are running a membership offer with a token non-withdrawable shareholding of £10.
