Just put some money into emoneyunion.com SEIS (crowdfunding for credit union market) and tidybooks EIS (bookcases for children) through crowdcube. Very pleased with investments but ask me again in 3 years time. I also loan money out through rebuildingsociety.com and am achieving 15% return across a portfolio of about 30 different SME business's.

I'm an angel investor (see my profile). Seedrs is a great platform for people looking to start out!

There are some dogs on there (which tend to receive very little investment) but generally there are some high quality opportunities.

One which caught my eye was Frame Again. They were on Dragons Den and Peter Jones wanted them to work for Jessops but they turned him down.

Another which I have also invested in is Future Ad Labs. They create a some awesome Captcha software which FTSE100 companies are starting to use. I'm not sure if investment it still open for that one though - it may have closed this weekend.

These are obviously high risk high reward ventures so be careful - but I and many I know have great success with the EIS/SEIS investing.
