The Lilac Centre

Championing inclusive entrepreneurship for Disabled, d/Deaf and neurodivergent founders.

Led by Small Business Britain, and supported in partnership with Lloyds and ARU Peterborough, the LILAC Centre brings lived experience, innovation and practical support together to remove barriers, build confidence and create real opportunities for Disabled founders to thrive.

Through research, collaboration and a growing community of entrepreneurs, organisations and allies, the LILAC Centre is working to shape a fairer, more inclusive future for business.

Via free resources such as webinars, online and in person networking events, a new tailored mentoring programme and more, the LILAC Centre is a space to champion inclusive entrepreneurship and spotlight businesses being led by Disabled, d/Deaf and neurodivergent entrepreneurs.
