The Pathway Fund is a pioneering impact investment wholesaler committed to advancing opportunities for black and ethnic minority communities across the UK. We do this by assisting communities in accessing finance and acquiring assets, and by fostering racial equity within the social investment sector. 

In 2025, Inclusive North delivered the Pathway Cost of Living Grant across Lancashire on behalf of Pathway Fund, a wholesaler supporting Racial Equity in the BRM-led social sector.

A budget of £130,000 in grant funding was distributed through an open call promoted across our networks and partners. Eight outstanding organisations were awarded grants for enterprising community projects, each also receiving tailored business support to strengthen sustainability beyond grant funding.
