Richard Lalchan
from Richard Lalchan – from Renew Your Mind
Having spent the majority of my career in digital marketing before moving into coaching, I founded Renew Your Mind to help business owners and professionals reclaim their focus by mastering their digital habits.
Guided by Christian principles, I equip people to build a resilient mindset and a robust worldview that shapes every area of life and work.
We do this through coaching, training, and publishing resources.
Richard says “Networking works. In fact 42% of my business in the last 10 years has come from it.”

Vignas Gunasegaran
From Redbridge Financial
Vig – Chartered Financial Planner
Let’s be honest – if you want basic financial advice, most advisers will do. But as a Chartered Financial Planner and CFA Charter holder, I offer something more holistic. I help with wealth planning, inheritance tax, retirement options, and protection using tools that show your financial future clearly. Away from work, I’m married to Sheryll with two children, love squash, good food, and biographies. What drives you?

Stanta
STANTA’s mission is to provide business advice to people in the local district. This was complemented in 1986 with opening of the St Albans Enterprise Centre which provided small, low risk, licensed office units to SMEs.
In 2005 STANTA opened its new purpose-built offices in St Albans at STANTA Business Centre, which eventually superseded its original leased premises.
The building is owned by STANTA and is designed to provide free business support in the district, as well as a home to a number of expanding small businesses.
STANTA is a Not for Profit enterprise with surplus property income used to fund free and low cost business advice to the local community.
