Big Issue Group

At Big Issue Group, we’re on a mission to dismantle poverty in the UK through social business solutions. Turning handouts into hand-ups.

With 6.8 million people in the UK living in very deep poverty, and this number rising, our work has never been more important.

We work to create opportunities and solutions for people to work, earn, learn and thrive. And ultimately lift themselves out of poverty.

As a growing social business and B Corp the Group brings together our Media, Investment, Recruitment, Impact and Support services, all of which operate around our five impact pillars.

These pillars are the heart of everything we do. The issues that we tackle in our journalism. The programmes of work we champion to improve the lives of our vendors and recruit candidates. The investments we facilitate through Big Issue Invest and our political campaigning work to change the law and end poverty in the UK.
