11 Mums plan an inspiring 2012 with their recent award of a Creation Station Franchise
12 December 2011: The UK’s leading children’s activity franchise The Creation Station announces the award of 11 new franchises to Mums during the months of September and November 2012.
The ‘Licence to Inspire’ children’s imaginations’ enables the 11 women to run their own art and crafts activity franchise within their local community and to start 2012 with their own a ready-made inspiring business.
The 11 mums come from across the UK and include the launch of The Creation Station in Northern Ireland;
Debbie Collins from Chester, Susan hammond from South Bristol, Susan Hicks from Durham, Erika Doerksen from Ipswich, Helena Silva from Exeter, Christine Coxfrom Solihull, Ann Berry from North Ipswich, Louise Platt from Bedfordshire, Naomi Savory from Southport, Debbie Miodonski from Chelmsford and Cath Allen from County Antrim.
Susan Hicks said “I was looking for an opportunity that would give me flexibility around my family needs but at the same time provide a good income” states Susan Hicks from Durham. “I came across The Creation Station and both my husband and I felt it ticked all the boxes for us as a family. For me, I love the brand ethos and all the people involved are very supportive and helpful”.
Cath Allen from County Antrim in Northern Ireland was recently made redundant and was looking to run her own business and to enable her to have more time with her daughter.
“I’m really excited to be the first to bring The Creation Station to Northern Ireland. I completed my training just three weeks ago and have already delivered a Creation Station Arty Party, which was really good fun, I have another booked for this Saturday too” states Allen, “The response to the Little Explorer and Baby Discovery art and craft classes has been really positive. I am starting 2012 with classes planned within the local community centres in Crumlin and Lilburn. I feel I have turned the difficult situation of redundancy around and I am now really looking forward to an inspiring 2012”
