Folk2Folk holds ‘Finance for Business’ Open Day to Launch Falmouth Agent

Due to the success of Cornwall-based people-to-business lender Folk2Folk, which is expanding across the South West, an Open Day will be held to celebrate the launch of the Falmouth Agency. Simon Sheldrake, recently appointed as Agent for Falmouth, will welcome guests to The Alverton in Truro on Wednesday 12th November throughout the day. The Open Day will run from 10am-5pm with an opportunity to drop-in and meet the Folk2Folk team, book private appointments to discuss a loan application, or apply to become a Folk2Folk Lender.

Mr Sheldrake said: “I’m looking forward to welcoming the business community in Truro, Falmouth and the surrounding areas so they can learn more about Folk2Folk and what it means for the region. It’s a fantastic chance for me to hear about any exciting projects people may have with a need for finance, and explain how people-to-business lending works.” “Folk2Folk has lent over £36million to the local economy so far and has £2million readily available to loan now, so this is a real opportunity for businesses to spread the word throughout Cornwall to help those in need of an injection of funds.” “I’m delighted to be on-board and am looking forward to speaking to and meeting more people over the coming weeks, and facilitating positive projects in my local area.”

There is no need to book for the Open Day but people can call Simon Sheldrake for an appointment on 01326 250332. To find out more, visit www.folk2folk.com.
