St Martin-in-the-Fields to host the Autumn Connector

Date

Charities announced for Autumn Connector at St Martin-in-the-Fields.

We’re delighted to announce the three charities selected to pitch at our Autumn Connector on Wednesday 16 September, from 5.45pm, generously hosted by Weatherbys Private Bank at St Martin-in-the-Fields.

At the event, we will hear pitches from:

Chamos – In Aid of the Children of Venezuela, which will share how it is helping children affected by recent earthquakes to continue their education.

Lawyers Who Care, which supports care-experienced young people to build successful careers in the legal profession.

Youth Environmental Service (YES), which creates employment opportunities for young people from diverse backgrounds in the environmental sector.

Overlooking Trafalgar Square, St Martin-in-the-Fields is one of London’s most iconic churches and cultural venues. Renowned for its beautiful architecture, wonderful music and long-standing commitment to social action, it provides an inspiring setting for an evening of big ideas, brilliant charities and generous people. The venue is fully accessible and just a short stroll from Charing Cross and Leicester Square stations.

The Autumn Connector will also mark Weatherbys Private Bank’s first event with us as a corporate host. Part of a family business with roots in British horse racing stretching back to 1770, Weatherbys certainly knows a thing or two about backing promising contenders!
