Plus Dane Housing

Plus Dane is a housing association with a strong social purpose, not only do we provide quality homes and foundations for our customers to grow. We are also passionate about tacking social inequality by supporting the personal, social and economic growth of our customers and enabling communities to thrive.

In Cheshire East, we serve Congleton, Alsager, Sandbach and Middlewich. We also serve neighbourhoods in Warrington, Halton and Ellesmere Port. In Liverpool, our core neighbourhoods include Toxteth, Everton and Bootle.  

We have supported grassroots projects and activities informally over the years but we think that now is the perfect time to evolve that into a more significant commitment; one that is led by communities and individuals who are passionate about working together to make positive change. We will review all crowdfunding projects and pledge support for those that we think offer the most social value to communities we serve and ones that share our social priorities as an organisation.  

We are particularly interested in projects which focus on;

• Employment & training  
• Digital inclusion 
• Physical, mental health and wellbeing 
• Tackling poverty 
• Social isolation 

Also, projects must;

• Be led by groups or community based organisations (no private companies or individuals) 
• Engage Plus Dane customers
• Be delivered within our neighbourhoods 
• Have backing from the local community 
• Be able to evidence impact and demonstrate outcomes

There is no formal application process - simply start crowdfunding on Spacehive. If you would like more information about our criteria for funding, please contact: EngagementTeam@plusdane.co.uk
