Investing, stress and a trolley

Written By Hannah Sloggett

We always knew that a community share offer was going to be a roller coaster – it’s one of those experiences you don’t enjoy but after you really love (we hope)!!! We’ve raised over £170,000 of investment in 6 weeks from 170 fabulous people who believe in Nudge… but if we don’t reach our minimum target of £285,000 we lose it all. So if you have been planning to invest why not do it now and help us get there..

We had a summer of preparing detailed plans, finances and share info – we know a lot of people don’t have time to read all that (but it’s there to be dived into here) so we wanted to share a few things we’ve heard people don’t realise….

  • Its an investment NOT a donation – think Dragons Den where you are the dragon and we’ve just come up in the lift (and yes you can come and quiz us, we’ll even find you a fancy chair).

  • £50 means as much as £50,000 although right now we could do with some bigger investors wanting up to 3.6% return and to do some good – but we don’t know many of these people because we spend most of our time hanging out on Union Street!!! If you know people that are wealthy and care about the impact empty buildings have on communities, share the info, connect us up, a little nudge can be all that’s needed.

  • An investment is the perfect Christmas pressie and a great way to show your business cares about the city.

  • If you’ve ever moaned that the city is missing a fab medium sized venue that is locally run and celebrates local talent this is your chance to put that right and make it happen!

  • We all know doing things on-line doesn’t work for everyone – if you’ve sat down to invest and got in a muddle get in touch, we can add your investment for you. Pop into The Plot or email hello@nudge.community
