We need your support to raise £750,000 of capital by 27th May 2026, to help finance the construction of a 2 MW solar farm in Compton Dando, Bath & North East Somerset

Key facts about Fairy Hill Solar Farm
The project will generate enough electricity to match the equivalent demand from around 800 homes.

Over its 30 year life, the project will generate £750k of community benefit, including £220k recycled back into the community through a ring-fenced community fund.

We will run a pilot offering the sale of electricity from the Fairy Hill solar array directly to local households.

We commit to increasing biodiversity through improved habits and a wildflower meadow and fruit orchard
