“Funding 4 Education – it was a great service and so manageable. They worked around my 3 year budget and I’ve set up a rolling plan, all new equipment throughout school in 3 years. I dealt with Jack. He would be more than happy to help.” – School Business Manager, Cheshire
“Overall, we are delighted with the equipment and the service we received. We are already seeing a constructive impact on our student engagement, with much more successful outcomes in teaching and learning experiences.” – IT Manager, Hampshire
“Our existing laser cutter was over 5 years old and just gave up on us. We needed a replacement immediately but had nothing left in the budget. F4E put together a deferred leasing plan for us which helped us get the new laser cutter right away and plan the smaller payments over future budgets” – Finance Manager, Cardiff
