Leah Holroyd

Leah Holroyd founded White Bicycle Ltd in December 2019 with her brother, Finn. They design and build online and blended learning programmes where everything is bespoke and tailored to the client’s requirements.

Leah says:

“We need to be clear that being inclusive is not just a tick-box exercise, but actually makes good business sense. Often disabled people are fantastic at problem-solving (because they’ve had to do it their entire lives!), so by excluding them we’re potentially missing out on all kinds of innovations and advancements.”
