Established in 2011, Derby Hub is not-for-profit membership organisation set up to help Derbyshire’s business community.

The organisation’s core mission is to create a culture of giving and collaboration between Derbyshire businesses, so that Derbyshire’s business community as a whole can become more successful.

In 2012, during the early stages of establishing her company, Sarah Loates joined Derby Hub as a director after recognising the value that business networking provides.

In addition to her directorial responsibilities, Sarah provides regular input into the direction and running of the organisation and remains an active member supporting other Derbyshire business owners.
