Make it easy to help
Charitable organisations and community groups share what they need—volunteer time, professional skills, space, or resources. Businesses browse, claim, and complete opportunities that fit their capacity.
About us
We believe local good
should be
easy
to do
CommonGood was born from a simple idea: when businesses and communities work together, everyone wins.
Founded by two Exeter entrepreneurs who saw countless grassroots initiatives and businesses eager to help—but no single place that made it easy to connect those efforts in a meaningful, measurable way. Starting in Exeter, we're now expanding across the UK.
That's where CommonGood comes in.

Our Mission
To build thriving, connected communities across the UK where doing good is part of doing business.
We connect businesses , charitable organisations , and community groups —helping them share skills, volunteer time, and channel resources into local projects that make a real difference.
What we do
A practical platform for discovering needs, delivering support, and proving impact.
Make it measurable
Capture proof of work and outcomes so organisations can report with confidence. CommonGood helps teams keep a clear audit trail and celebrate completed contributions.
Make it motivating
Points, certificates, and leagues create friendly momentum—helping businesses keep social value visible and consistent throughout the year.
Meet the founders
Two Exeter entrepreneurs who believe in the power of community. Here's why they started CommonGood.
Sophie Weeks
Co-founder & Creative Director
An award-winning interior designer and creative entrepreneur, Sophie has spent over 15 years leading design across the country. Through her work at Expedite and now Stone Petal Studio, she's built a reputation for creating spaces that are fit for purpose, beautiful, and always human-centred.
Sophie is passionate about purposeful business, social value, and creating opportunities for people to connect through design, community, and shared goals.
"I've seen first-hand how businesses want to help—they just need the right connections. CommonGood makes those connections happen."
Nikki Fairclough
Co-founder & Community Director
A proud Exonian, Nikki is the founder of WE Placemaking, a community-based placemaking consultancy recognised nationally for its creative and social impact. Her work has earned multiple awards, including The Sceptres, Revo, and The Developer Pineapple for Placemaking.
Nikki has commissioned public art and city installations, and previously founded a socially circular play café Little Exeter that welcomed over 68,000 visitors and donated 100% of profits (£30,000) to local causes.
An author, mother, and proud community connector, Nikki sits on the boards of three charities and has served as a Business Improvement District (InExeter) Director.
"Exeter has an incredible community spirit. CommonGood is about channelling that energy into measurable, lasting change."
Why CommonGood?
We're not just another platform. Here's what makes us different.

Community-led
Founded by people who've spent decades building community connections. We understand what charitable organisations actually need—and how businesses can truly help.
