Plunkett UK changed its name in 2024 from Plunkett Foundation to reflect its continuing role as a key national charity offering support and services to community businesses across the UK. At their recent 2026 annual general meeting, Plunkett UK launched its new 5 year strategy.
The strategic report highlights the power of local communities coming together to save and develop local services, demonstrating the strength of a community ownership model. The new strategy builds on Plunkett UK's goals to grow the size, reach, and impact of rural community business sectors and to respond to the challenges facing rural communities and rural community business.
The report outlines three strategic priorities underpinned by theory of change - stronger community business, stronger movement, and stronger Plunkett.
