Speaker Insight

*“We were stuck in a Catch 22. We knew that we needed to expand our membership to reach younger readers and audiences. Doubling our membership would make us self-sufficient. The only way we could do that was to secure funding from outside. However, the donor market has dried up. We could run in ever decreasing circles or find another way.

The only possibility was social investment of the kind that Ubele and SIB were offering.

After a lot of nurturing and care over the last few months and commitment to see it through we've now secured a loan and a grant to help us on our way.”*

— Jaldeep Katwala, Operations Lead, Bristol Cable
