Premiership Rugby is back – and so are we

Small businesses need a great team supporting them, just like in rugby. That’s why we’re sponsoring Premiership Rugby, so we can keep backing you from behind the scenes.

Jamie George Funding Circle
Say hello to our brand ambassador, Jamie George

We chose England captain and Saracens star Jamie George as our brand ambassador, as he knows what it takes to run a business. Having co-founded his physiotherapy clinic, The Carter & George Practice, in 2018, Jamie has to juggle being a business owner with his rugby career – and understands the importance of hard work, determination and having a team of people behind you to help.


“I’m thrilled to be Funding Circle’s Ambassador. Funding Circle backs businesses like mine with funding to help them succeed.” - Jamie George, Brand Ambassador

How Carter & George grew their physiotherapy business into 9 clinics across the UK

Carter & George was set up by Jamie and his long-time friend Rhys Carter, who wanted to make athlete-level medical care accessible to all. After opening their first clinic in Hertford, they realised they needed support with their cash flow in order to grow. Here, they tell us about their mission, and how they reached their goals with the backing of a loan.
