Spacehive already has an industry-leading rate of project success - over 70% of campaigns succeed.

The Brixton Pound is the first urban community/complementary currency in the UK, designed to meet local needs and respond to the economic challenges in Brixton. My role focused on the development of the organisation from one reliant on grant funding and working on a single issue (money) to one which had wider social goals and generated its own revenue. During my time at the Brixton Pound achievements and landmarks included setting up two new spaces, launching a community lottery and grant fund, a local currency cash machine (a first anywhere in the world), and showcasing the Brixton Pound at the V&A, Tate Modern, Museum of London as well as countless national and international features.
