So am looking at this idea just to get the Ball rolling until i can find the ideal premises.... This will also give me a way of saving more money as i will have very little over heads.... He is also arranging a meetingwith him and a lady who deals with ALL funding that is available to new Businesses and also deals with the New Extended Schools Project.. he also has suggested other Services that i could involve that i am looking into as well.. All in all he was very excited about my idea and thinks it is something that will be snapped up Locally.. I am really excited  |
That is interesting! and quite unusual! Sounds like a really good idea. There's lots of hands on things you could do that are portable - winter twigs for trees, plastercasts of animal prints, feathers, seed germination (then tree planting) - even tadpoles can survive a day or two in a bucket of pond water!
Please keep us updated with this, I'm excited with you!!
