Frustrated with the lack of free, family facilities in their local area, three enterprising young mothers have taken matters into their own hands...
MBG Funhouse is a pioneering new initiative designed by three single mums to create and strengthen social bonds within a deprived community.
The MBG Funhouse will provide bonding activities for both carer and child, such as; sports, arts, cake decoration, homework club, mediation, and counselling with the aim of alleviating parental isolation and lack of confidence within the community by building bonds between carer and child.
As a social enterprise it will look to secure training and support contracts from public agencies and generate income through complementary commerical services.
“The Striding Out coaching sessions have helped us to increase our confidence and knowledge for planning the business. We have developed a business strategy, a financial plan, undertaken market research, and planned our marketing. As a result we have had the motivation to make relevant contacts and connections, and accessed other useful resources and support. We have now managed to secure a £5k loan from the Princes Trust.”
Striding Out events are unique because they are facilitated by a Business Coach. The coach will get to know you and your business, and introduce you to the right people to accelerate your success.
