Last week I was kindly invited to a fab event held in the beautiful crypt of @mercatomayfair, hosted by @Impact100London, an organisation that uses the innovative model of collective philanthropy to provide grants to charities that help marginalised women and children in London.

✨Why not sponsor someone to become an #Impact100London member? Effectively breaking down a barrier to participation in our unique model of philanthropy, sponsored members enhance our community by broadening and diversifying our membership. #collectivephilanthropy

@Impact100London has organised an Empowerment through Self Defence Workshop and is led by the Charity, Action Breaks Silence. Book a slot for yourself and get your daughter, niece, or neighbour along! Date: 9th of Nov 2024 Time: 3:00 pm to 4:45 pm

👏💜
