How Social Investment Tax Relief helped East Learning CIC to grow

Angharad Thomas, Co-founder of social enterprise East Learning CIC, talks about some of the challenges they faced as a start-up to get finance. She also shares how Social Investment Tax Relief (SITR) was the lifeline to helping them raise capital to invest in the tech they needed to grow. SITR was introduced by the Government to encourage investment into social enterprises and charities by offsetting the risk to investors. Unfortunately, due to a sunset clause in the legislation, it may be retired by Government in April 2021 unless action is taken now to prevent this.

With the money raised using SITR, East Learning CIC went from supporting 3,000 young people across England to over 30,000 in a year.
