HOW WE’VE HELPED OTHER STARTUPS
BADU is a community interest company that works with young people, their families and schools to tackle challenges like inequality, food poverty, gang culture and mental health. It’s looking for funding and wanted support to get a new project off the ground.
The Plexal team have worked directly with BADU to support their funding ambitions and our CEO sits on BADU’s board. We also worked closely with BADU during the pandemic, providing a space for young people to study and sponsorship of BADU’s holiday hamper campaign for families in east London.
