Crowdfund Portsmouth

CIL Transformation Fund

Portsmouth City Council and Crowdfunder teamed up to support projects that are helping to improve the city and make it a great waterfront city to live, work and play.

Using the power of the crowd, we helped projects to find the funding and support they need to turn their ideas into a reality.

This fund is now closed, but you can still crowdfund in Portsmouth by clicking the button below.
