I cannot overstate how incredible the Good Guide is for an ethical founder! The hours, stress and overwhelm it has already saved me is invaluable, and the cost of the resource (with free lifetime updates!) is so reasonable - it was the easiest purchase I’ve ever made as an early-stage bootstrapper.
It’s such a comfort to feel like I’m keeping track of the opportunities that are out there, and trusting that they are a ‘good’ choice is mega important to me. I especially love the range of filters so I can focus my time and energy looking at the opportunities most relevant to me.
Thank you In Good Company for creating my opportunities bible!

Who are we?
👋 Hi - We’re Alex and Sarah, the co-founders of In Good Company.
We’ve been where you are too. Countless nights spent scouring the web, searching for that opportunity that would propel our purpose-driven business forward. Kicking ourselves when we discovered that great award after the fact, or wasting time pursuing generic startup opportunities which didn’t match our values. It was just so hard.
That was when we started building a list. We couldn’t understand why we should waste time hunting for scattered pieces of information when you can have it all in one place? (Which BTW is the ethos behind In Good Company)
So we decided to create a comprehensive guide, meticulously curated from hundreds of hours of research with over 130 of the best awards, grants, programmes, sales partners, and tools specifically tailored for ethical founders like you.
Since then we've raised £100k in angel investment, £20,000 in grants and competitions, gotten a government-backed award of £50,000. We've won or being shortlisted for 5 prestigious awards (and been covered in national and local press as a result).
We've also found our tribe and grown expontionally because we joined the right communities and support programmes.
Make 2024 the year to free up your time and make your mark in the world without losing yourself in the pursuit.
Fancy a free taster?
Still not quite sure if the Good Guide is for you?
Enter your email and we'll send a sample of 10 listings from the Good Guide, completely free of charge.
Includes 3 grants, 2 support programmes, an award and a competition - all things you could benefit from today.

Why did you create this?
We, Alex and Sarah, co-founders of In Good Company, created the Good Guide out of our own experiences and challenges in finding the right opportunities to propel our purpose-driven business forward.
We spent countless nights scouring the web, often discovering great opportunities too late or pursuing generic startup opportunities that didn't match our values. It was hard.
That's why we decided to build a comprehensive guide, saving ethical founders like you from the frustration and time-waste we went through, and to support you in making your mark on the world efficiently and effectively.
Do I have to be a certain type of company to benefit?
The Good Guide contains opportunties for various different types of companies, whether your a company limited by shares, a social enteprise or CIC. Its designed for impact-driven businesses, whatever type of company structure you've chosen.
We've included specific tags for categories like social impact, sustainability, female founders, POC founders and so on to make it really easy to narrow down the right opportunities for your business.
Is this for UK founders only?
Yes the Good Cuide is UK focused only - we don't include global opportunities which exclude the UK as its not an area we know so well. There are some London specific opportuntiies as that's our hometown but the vast majority are remote / UK-wide and we'll keep adding more from across the UK as we discover them!

Both! There are resources and opportunities for product and service/tech businesses. You can easily search for any specific opportunities using the filters too.
