In a short space of time, writer, theatre director and entrepreneur CJ Lloyd Webley has developed a flair for business to match his creative talents.
CJ earns his keep as a theatre director, working at Birmingham's Rep theatre.
But, after been moved by the protests and marches that followed the murder of George Floyd in 2020, he decided to launch a new project to help black entrepreneurs across the West Midlands.
The Black Pounds Project offers mentoring, training and membership packages and has helped kickstart and boost the careers and businesses of burgeoning black entrepreneurs.
