The Month In Pics...
It has been a whirlwind of a month for Life In…Magazines, so rather than just write about it, we thought we’d show you in pictures what we’ve been up to…
The Entrepreneur Experience
We took part in a business panel entitled The Entrepreneur Experience in the UK, organised by Startup Bromley to discuss the experiences of entrepreneurs in the UK, with the MC being the wonderful Emily Maitlis.

The Business Pitch Competition In another event organised by Startup Bromley, we had the opportunity to present a business pitch to a panel of judges for the chance to win a cash prize for business investment. We were given pitch training by Exclusive Visions and went through a couple of rounds before the live finals. We were delighted to scoop second prize to receive £1,000, which will be invested in improving our online services.

Be Inspired, Be Empowered
We teamed up with iVerbalize to run a ‘Be Inspired, Be Empowered’ event for nearly 50 female-owned businesses throughout the borough on the back of International Women’s Day in early March. The free event was sponsored and hosted at Community House (communityhousebromley. org.uk) in Bromley’s South Street. It was also supported by Buckingham Photography (buckinghamphotography.co.uk) and Metro Bank Bromley. We had a great line-up of guest speakers and panelists and the feedback was for more events like this - watch this space!
24 Life in... BROMLEY May 2022
We showcased our latest Bromley magazines at a Spring Marketplace, which was organised by Startup Bromley and hosted at Contingent Works.
Community House was the setting for the ‘Be Inspired, Be Empowered’ event. Business manager, Aastha Kamboj, is offering readers of Life In…Magazines a 10% discount for all bookings. Quote 'Empower' when booking. Email manager@communityhousebromley.org.uk or see www.communityhousebromley.org.uk
