Anne's info
I'm from Penzance Cornwall UK, South West, United Kingdom and I'm here to find support, get financial advice, get business planning advice, motivate others, find inspiration, expand my network
So far I have a great idea, written a business plan, gained funding, worked with a business agency, registered the company, started trading
Catch a Wave UK cic is the first Watersports and Complementary Therapies Social Enterprise in the UK, encouraging more people into the water and to use their natural environment, as a way of supporting them in improving their health and wellbeing on all levels … especially those who wouldn’t normally consider this an option, and those excluded from society, or who have had a challenged background.
Market Sectors include the NHS and other health related agencies, Schools, Groups and Individuals. We now have several Watersports Providers on board, an Outdoor Activity Centre, and a range of Complementary Therapies.
We won the Flybe/Western Morning News Cornwall Travel Bursary 2011, and have been awarded the ILCM quality mark; We have also been awarded an Awards For All National Lottery grant, Unltd grant, and The RSA nominated our MD, Anne Harrington as a Fellow in 2011; Anne has also been voted Pioneer of the Month via VMP, and been in the semi finals of the Innovation Challenge at VM! :D
