What is TWC Connect?
TWC Connect is a new initiative created for The Wykeham Collegiate community by The Wykeham Collegiate Old Girls Guild. It is a community-driven digital platform where TWC-connected entrepreneurs can promote their businesses and support each other’s businesses. Together we are stronger.
Our Objectives:
1. Provide a digital platform where TWC-connected businesses can connect with and support one another via our online business directory where each member gets their own promotional landing page.
