We crowdfund with just one title at a time With each new project, it is usually just £1 to read/hear it online. For £5+ you can buy the book in print.
We make limited edition books Our products are only available during each campaign and we only print what we sell. Every backer contributes to the creation of The Pound Project’s titles.
We use a democratic funding model to generate revenue Setting attainable targets, including our community in the creation of the book, and working inclusively with writers to raise their profile.
We pay our writers their equal share Behind every story there are hours of work and dedication. Too often this goes unrewarded and this is unsustainable.
We create environmentally friendly products Why shouldn’t packaging be reusable? We want our stories out there using sustainable, recycled materials.
We know time is precious That's why we make books you can carry in your back pocket, share with friends, read on your phone, or listen to on the bus.
We raise funds for charity For our anthology projects, we partner with important organisations to raise money and awareness for crucial causes, including addiction, grief, suicide, mental health, the arts, sustainable business and the environment.
