Grant-backed today.
Self-sustaining tomorrow.

A structured transition from grant dependency to earned income - we're building long term financial resilience while we prove our model.

Our funding model

A three-year glidepath.

Gearing2Grow CIC combines grant funding with a structured transition to earned income. In Year 1, delivery is primarily grant funded as we build our evidence base and track record. From Year 2, we will actively develop service contracts, community vehicle income, and subcontracting arrangements.
