Described as “London’s hottest new fast food chain”, Chilango is today launching its second investment round on Devon-based Crowdcube in the form of an equity crowdfund that aims to raise £1 million from investors in return for a 3.26% stake in the business.
This money will kick start the next expansion phase that expects to see five-fold growth in the next five years. Details of the pitch are at www.crowdcube.com/chilango . This is different to its highly successful bond offer last summer where investors put in a minimum of £500 in return for an 8% p.a. interest payment over the...
Exeter Chiefs forward Don Armand has warned he and his team-mates can ill afford to “rest on their laurels” despite getting their Aviva Premiership campaign up and running with victory over London Irish on Saturday.
Having come unstuck in their seasonal opener away to Bath seven days earlier, the Devon club marked their competitive return to Sandy Park with a comfortable 38-11 success over the Exiles.
“We have standards we set for ourselves and we didn’t step up to them against Bath,” said Armand, who was among the try-scorers in Saturday’s success.
TOM NICHOLS' opener was cancelled out by Liam Noble as the Grecians drew 1-1 at home to Notts County.
Alex Nicholls started out wide in place of Lee Holmes in the Grecians' only change to the starting eleven from the midweek win over Cambridge United at St James Park. Ryan Harley returned to take a place on the bench alongside Tom McCready, while Notts County made two changes of their own; Jack Barmby and Adam Campbell the players coming in.
After David Wheeler forced a succession of corners in City's favour in the early stages of the first half, Tom Nichols had Paul...

WESC Foundation, a school and college for children, young people and adults with sight loss, is a specialist centre for Visual Impairment. The Exeter-based charity held a sell-out fashion show fundraiser hosted at the Met Office sponsored by ITEC Connect. More than 150 guests descended on the Met Office before being whisked off in chauffer driven limousines courtesy of Mercedes-Benz Exeter to feel like a star posing for the paparazzi on the red carpet before enjoying a champagne reception.
Witty broadcaster Judi Spiers compéred the fashion show with the autumn/winter 2015...
One of the most brilliant things about Exeter is its openness to vegetarians and vegans. Now, I’m not saying it’s completely open and there are no harsh judgements, however in comparison to some of the other cities in the UK that I’ve visited, Exeter is far from the worst.
In fact, there’s a lovely little vegetarian and vegan café in the Cathedral yard called The Plant Café. I visited there once before for a chai latte and a slice of carrot cake but was keen to return and try the famous vegan chocolate cake. I should make this clear now, I’m a vegetarian, not vegan, yet was eager...
