The Sir Thomas White Loan Charity (STWLC) is all about supporting new and developing businesses and helping them to be successful – but it can be difficult to find the time to meet like-minded people and feel supported.

Building on STWLC's sell-out events from the last two years, the Charity is repeating the winning formula of great venue, great people and great networking – because the STWLC family is here to help. This event, held in a beautiful rooftop venue in the heart of Leicester, will help you to connect with local businesses, supporters and people just like you who are running their own business. It is a great chance to feel inspired and recharge, celebrating one anothers small beginnings and big ideas, all at a very local level.
