You do? (Well, who wouldn’t?) Then you should seriously consider running your own Creation Station franchise.

Founded by mum to three and a multi award winning entrepreneur Sarah Cressall is passionate about inspiring imaginations and supporting other to run their own fun and rewarding business

It’s an approved member of the British Franchise Association – and, if you are one of the next lucky 20 who are awarded a ‘Licence to Inspire’ you’ll receive a £1,000 Government-backed business-booster grant to get you up and running. And, in the (unlikely) event that it turns out not to be right for you, they even offer a 100% money-back guarantee.

Rachel Simpson from Nottinghamshire worked as a teacher but wanted a change from teaching and more flexibility to be around for her own children

“I came across The Creation Station and realised I could still work with children doing something, fun, and creative and providing positive experiences between parents/carers and children. Running my own franchise offered the chance to grow my own business and to have the flexibility to work around my family commitments.” said Rachel “It also provided lots of ongoing support with all aspects of the business and I was fortunate to gain the £1000 business booster grant too. Now I’m loving running my business and on top of all this, the Creative Hub team and network are are really lovely, friendly and encouraging people.”

Due to the success of the ‘Business Booster Grant’, it has been extended for the next 20 people who train before May 2014. Individuals can receive the £1000 business booster premium support package which includes additional retail products for you to sell, as well as targeted marketing support to help boost your business.

With over 105,000 children and families already inspired the demand for the award winning Creation Station experiences continues to increase so there has never been a better time to join the inspiring fun and help to make a difference to others. It could be exactly what you are looking for.
