About Raised in Bristol
Raised in Bristol is a social enterprise providing Ofsted-regulated early years education and nursery care across Bristol. Through its child-centred approach, the organisation delivers high-quality, inclusive education that helps children thrive while ensuring families from all backgrounds can access affordable childcare. As a social enterprise, Raised in Bristol reinvests its profits into expanding its impact, supporting local communities and creating opportunities for more children to benefit from high-quality early years education.
Our Investment
Resonance made two investments through the South West SITR Fund. The first enabled Raised in Bristol to open its second and third nurseries in St Paul's and Easton, while the second supported the fit-out of its fourth nursery in Southmead, alongside providing working capital to cover early operating costs and Living Wage salaries.
Our Impact
The investment has enabled Raised in Bristol to expand its nursery provision across the city, creating high-quality childcare places for local families while increasing access to early years education in underserved communities. By supporting the organisation's growth, the investment has helped Raised in Bristol continue reinvesting its profits locally, creating skilled employment opportunities and ensuring more children benefit from inclusive, high-quality early years learning.
