Client Story: Faith Brynels Insights CIC
"Wenta’s mentorship has helped refine our business strategy, expand our reach and move forward with confidence in supporting young people." – Faith Brynel Pomell, Founder, Faith Brynels Insights CIC
Faith Brynels Insights CIC (FBI CIC) is all about helping young people and career changers unlock their potential. Founded by Faith Brynel Pomell in 2020, this community interest company empowers 16- to 25-year-olds with free resources and practical insights that support their academic, personal and professional growth.
Through workshops, events and her podcast “Faith Brynel Talks Law”, Faith shares knowledge and motivation on study skills, law, career pathways and well-being — all designed to help her audience gain confidence and break through barriers. For Faith, this work is deeply personal. Having faced bullying and challenges in her own education journey, she set out to create a supportive space where young people can feel heard, encouraged and equipped to succeed.
But running a social enterprise alone brings its own challenges — from funding to strategy and reaching the right audience. That’s when Faith found Wenta.
"I came across Wenta on Google while looking for support for small businesses. As a new CIC, I knew I needed expert guidance to build a strong foundation and grow our impact," Faith says. "Wenta’s advice, resources and one-to-one support have been invaluable in helping me shape a clear strategy, navigate funding options and market our services more effectively."
Faith-Brynels Insights CIC has benefited from tailored advice on business planning, funding applications and marketing, along with practical mentoring that’s helped Faith refine her operations and reach even more young people who need encouragement and guidance.
This is exactly what Wenta does every day as one of the UK’s largest social enterprises. As a not-for-profit, Wenta provides completely free business support to anyone in the UK who wants to start or grow a business — whether you need one-to-one advice, webinars, skills training or mentoring.
"Wenta’s support means we can keep doing what we do best — helping young people build resilience, gain confidence and thrive," says Faith. With big plans for the future, including larger events, new partnerships and expanded online courses, Faith Brynels Insights CIC is ready to grow its impact even further.
For Faith, having a social enterprise like Wenta in her corner has made all the difference — proving that no founder has to do it alone.
