Our Success
Citylife's work has resulted in around £35 million being invested in local communities: £10 million from Bond subscriptions has leveraged a further £25 million of UK, EU and other matched funds.
Thousands have benefited from the impact of Bonds in Sheffield, Newcastle, London and the Welsh Coalfields:
- Over 5000 people have been provided with advice, support & training
- 3000 people helped into jobs
- 200+ people have been helped to start their own business, so creating further jobs
- Hundreds more are being helped out of doorstep debt
Caroline ChannerBefore her local Citylife Bond Caroline was on benefit with 4 children. Money from the Bond helped her start her own hair salon which is going from strength to strength.
Steve Spring
Steve became unemployed and found it impossible to get a job or start his own business. No-one would give him a loan or a chance and he was forced to rely on unemployment benefit until a Citylife Bond funded charity enabled Steve to start his own successful business.
