The SolRise Collective stems from the desire to do meaningful impactful work that will benefit people and planet over profit. Our name comes from the idea of empowering organisations through lighting a path, Solar, and enabling them to grow, Rise. Collectively we can support you to understand and communicate the impactful work you do.

Our Journey

We met on a women’s surf trip, bonded over our shared ambitions and have been on a roll ever since.

We see The SolRise Collective as a marriage of our brains and passions, offering expertise which takes you from an early assessment stage right through to a comprehensive communications and branding strategy.

We want to make our work as accessible as possible, elevating the important work of charities, CIC’s and SMEs with a particular focus on female and minority founders.
