If you’re eager to volunteer and make a real impact in your local community, Make Good Grow has the perfect opportunity for you. Founded by Nigel Shanahan, the visionary behind Rant & Rave, this innovative platform fills a crucial gap. Many businesses and individuals are ready to give back but often face challenges in finding effective ways to contribute. With Make Good Grow, Nigel and the team are actively connecting passionate volunteers with good causes in South Warwickshire, making it easier than ever to get involved and make a lasting difference. As we are now a Certified Social Enterprise! We thought we’d re-introduce ourselves.
The Vision Behind Make Good Grow
Nigel’s journey began with Rant & Rave, a successful business focused on customer engagement and feedback. After selling the company, Nigel was inspired to create something that would not only bring people together but also foster positive change within the local community. Alongside his partner Dessie, Nigel bought 1 Mill Street in Leamington Spa, transforming it into a unique co-working space that champions community and collaboration.
But this was only the beginning. Nigel’s ultimate goal was to create a platform that would make it easier for people to volunteer and contribute to good causes without overwhelming themselves. He recognised that while many people search for volunteer opportunities, finding the right one can be challenging. This realisation sparked the creation of Make Good Grow.
