Need funding to grow? Access support and pitch for up to £5,000.

Most early-stage founders aren’t short on effort, but on clarity. It can be hard to know what’s working, what isn’t, what to focus on next, and where to go for support.
The Tower Hamlets Support for Startups programme is designed for that stage. If you’ve been trading for 6–24 months and growth isn’t where you expected it to be, this programme offers practical support, clear direction, and the opportunity to pitch for up to £5,000 to unlock your next stage.
Applications are open for Tower Hamlets businesses and residents running early-stage ventures - https://bit.ly/3RDDK2B

This programme is funded by the London Borough of Tower Hamlets through the UK Government’s Shared Prosperity Fund, supported by the Greater London Authority London Authority, and delivered by Allia Impact.

Needing to adjust your business to flexible hybrid workspace?

If your company is moving towards renting somewhere that allows your departments to easily rotate, both our Peterborough and Cambridge campuses offer move-in ready workspaces to suit your businesses changing needs.

Our larger offices have numerous standout features to give your company’s workspace the edge, such as pitchside views of the football club at Peterborough, or being the only office on your floor at Cambridge. These spaces are made to be adapted to your team, with internal offices in both of our largest rooms.

With key amenities covered, on-site catering, and good road & rail transport links at both sites, Allia Future Business Centre has exactly what your business has been looking for.

On Friday, the first cohort of The Founders Pit Stop walked through the door.

9 experienced founders got the chance to meet, and share their highest and lowest moments on their journey so far. Isolation, and how it strips away at joy and creativity, is a crucial problem facing founders that this programme is hoping to address.

Friday began to foster a sense of community between founders going through the same struggles as each other, with reflective business support. This was partnered with Madam Makery's creative workshop, embracing imaginative defiance and personal expression through collage.

The founders were engaged, honest, thoughtful and willing to embrace something a little different. With 3 more workshops to go, we’re really excited to see the new ideas that come out of it, and hope to see the founders get the refuel they’ve been needing.

Thank you to The Trampery for providing the space for these workshops, and to our funders Peabody and CVC Dif for their continued support.

What a way to start.

The Start Strong Lewisham launch reminded us why this programme exists. To create space for people at the very start of their journey, to ask questions, share uncertainty, and build confidence alongside others who get it.
This cohort is thoughtful, generous and full of potential, and we’re excited to support them as they explore where their ideas could lead.
Onwards from here.

Last Thursday wasn’t just about celebrating success, it was about recognising progress.

At our Tower Hamlets Community Day, we came together to celebrate founders from our Supported Access to Finance programme who are navigating one of the hardest stages of building a business: the early months where everything feels uncertain, every decision matters, and progress often happens quietly.
What filled the room were honest conversations, real challenges, hard-earned wins, and stories of resilience from founders continuing to push forward even when growth feels difficult.
Moments like this are a reminder that early-stage businesses need more than funding alone. They need practical support, space to think clearly, meaningful guidance, and the confidence to keep moving forward.

That’s why we launched the next chapter: the Tower Hamlets Support for Startups programme.

Designed for businesses already trading but finding growth harder than expected, the programme offers practical growth support, expert guidance, tailored scale-up planning, and the opportunity to pitch for up to £5,000 to support the next stage of growth.

If you’re a Tower Hamlets business trading for 6–24 months and looking for more clarity, momentum, and direction, applications are now open.

Only 3 spaces remain for our new programme The Founder Pitstop, make sure to get your application in to not miss out!

The Founder Pitstop addresses a crucial issue overlooked by traditional business support. Founders start their ventures with a clear purpose, but over time the day-to-day running of the business can bury the original spark. The Founder Pit Stop is a programme for founders who recognise that feeling and want space to do something about it.

Ran in partnership by Allia Impact & Madam Makery, over four workshops you’ll switch between two modes of work. On one end, business support sessions give you structured space to talk through the hurdles and victories you’ve met on the way, with your peers who are carrying the same weight. On the other, creative workshops challenge you to forget about performance or competence for a few hours, and to create with curiosity and freedom.

The two parts work together to give founders the spark they lost along the way. Reflection gives the creative work somewhere to go. Making gives the reflection somewhere to land. The programme is free, entirely in person, and built for experienced founders in Hackney and East London who don't always get a look-in from traditional business support.
