Thank you to everyone who joined us for The Leasing Foundation Summer Party last night. It was a brilliant evening in an amazing location, and we couldn’t have done it without your support. Congratulations to both Kerry Sanders (Liberty Leasing Ltd) who won our individual contribution to charitable causes award and DF Capital, our business contribution to charitable causes award winner. You are shining stars in this industry! A special thank you to our sponsors – DF Capital, Lendscape, Haydock Finance Ltd, Acquis, and Funding Xchange. Your help made the night possible and helped us raise funds for Beyond, our youth mental health charity partner. A big shout out also goes to Roger Sanford, our photographer for the night. Look out for our photos on LinkedIn next week! We’re proud of what we achieved together, and we hope you enjoyed the night as much as we did. #SummerParty #YouthMentalHealth #ThankYou

Meet laura crane, our keynote speaker for our NextGen Networking event in October! Laura, 29, is a surfer from North Devon and the first British woman to surf the huge waves at Nazare, Portugal. She started surfing at 12 and by 15, she had big-name sponsors and was travelling the world. But at 21, she quit professional surfing to protect her happiness and mental health. The pressure to focus more on her looks than her talent made her give it all up. After some time off, Laura returned to surfing and fell in love with it again. She’s now breaking barriers at Nazare, making history in the sport once more. Laura will share her story about growing up in pro sports, facing fears, finding her superpower, and what it's like to surf giant waves. 🏄♀️ ⏰ 9 October 2024, 6pm - 9pm 📍 Alfa Financial Software, Moor Place, Barbican, London EC2Y 9DT 🎫 Tickets are £70 each For more info and to get your tickets, click here: https://lnkd.in/emP9-346 #NextGenNetworking #LauraCrane #BigWaveSurfer #WomenInSport #MentalHealthMatters

A huge well done to Melanie Chell for completing the Chillswim Triple Crown challenge in aid of Beyond! Swimming the length of Windermere in nearly nine hours is no small feat. You are amazing!

Thank you to everyone who sponsored me and supported me I got to 91% of my target raising money for Beyond . The Chillswim Triple crown was completed on Saturday after nearly 9 hours of swimming the length of Windermere!! This picture of me receiving a much needed hug from a friend at the finish sums it all up. It’s amazing what can be achieved with sheer determination. I can and I will - and I did 🩷 x #openwaterswimming #icanandiwill #charity #challenge
