Investing in Social Change

The Ethical Property Company is a unique initiative in ethical investment. We buy properties and develop them as centres that bring charities, co-operatives, community and campaign groups together under one roof where they can share skills and ideas. Groups in our centres benefit from reasonable rents, flexible tenancy terms and office space and facilities designed to meet their needs.

Anyone can buy shares in the company. We currently have over 1300 shareholders, some investing as little as £300. Our shareholders help to maintain our 14 centres and 130 tenant organisations across the country.
Over the last five years the Company has paid its shareholders an annual dividend of 3 pence per share and the share price has increased from 1.20p in December 2005 to our proposed 3.25p. Shareholders can sell their shares through a matched bargain market operated by Brewin Dolphin Securities.

Our third share issue, in 2006, reached full subscription and raised over £3.6M. If you would like to register for information on buying shares now on the matched bargain market, you can visit the Buying Shares page or call Brewin Dolphin on 0845 458 9526.
Broadcaster and environmental campaigner George Monbiot said he bought shares in the company 'because I've seen at first hand what a massive difference it has made for campaign groups in Britain. Most "ethical investments" work on the principal of negative ethics: the best they can offer is that you are not investing in the most obviously dodgy companies. This is one of the few which allows you actively to support the causes you believe in.
