Golden Lane Housing win Social Investment award for its Retail Charity Bond

Our congratulations to Golden Lane Housing who last Thursday won the new Social Investment category in the prestigious Third Sector Awards, for their Retail Charity Bond.

The bond issued through Allia’s Retail Charity Bond platform in July 2014 raised £11m in 8 days and has enabled Golden Lane Housing in one year to purchase 24 homes for people with learning disabilities.

So far nearly 90 people have moved in or are planning to move into much needed housing that has been specially adapted to meet their current and future care and support needs.
