Ambassadors
The Sir Thomas White Loan Charity is delighted to have a group of ambassadors for the Charity, each of whom have benefited from our interest-free business loans.
Our ambassadors join us in spreading the word about The Sir Thomas White Loan Charity – using their stories to inspire other entrepreneurs.

OSCAR FORD
Oscar became an STWLC Business Loan borrower in September 2018. The loan provided vital growth capital, taking two full-time members of staff (including Oscar) in 2018 to four in 2022, while growing revenue by 2.5x times in three years.

STEFF LEE
Steff took out a Sir Thomas White Loan Charity business loan in June 2018 to allow the company to grow from a sole trader to a limited company with two directors.

LEE TOMES

HANNAH MYATT
Hannah became a Sir Thomas White Loan Charity business loan borrower in September 2017, with her loan helping to develop her dance business.
