Firstport

We are the first port of call for social entrepreneurs, and the best place for you to start your journey into business.

Like many of the businesses we support, we are a charity and social enterprise. For over 16 years, we have been helping budding social entrepreneurs make their ideas happen. From the start, we have offered grant funding and business advice. Over the years, we have grown and developed new services including investment readiness support and social investment products, responding to the needs of the entrepreneurs we support.

While we now deliver all these services, relationships, mentoring, and encouragement are the pillars of our support.
