Nathaniel Peat

My name is Nathaniel Peat, I am the Founder and CEO of The Safety Box, which is an award winning social enterprise designed to awaken the creative potential of young people providing services and products for schools. We have impacted over 6000 young people in Britain and the company will be expanding to Jamaica in 2012 through life skill books and resources, I am now changing the focus of the business into developing books and resources as there have been so many budget cuts to services and schools are not as willing to pay for extended services, so I have turned all our services into resources.

We received a great deal of media coverage with our anti-knife based programs and have been featured on BBC, Sky, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 we were one of the first providers of alternative curriculum for youth at risk of offending. http://www.thesafetybox.org

I am also the director and joint partner of Just Cool Lifestyle brand which supply water, sparking water, fruit drinks, sports drinks, clothes and merchandise. We are trying to launch into the UK retail market and are seeking investment.

I enjoying motivating others and helping them to achieve success. I am trying to move from the social side of business to the commercial side and need as much help as possible, I am here to create links, meet new people, network and step into opportunities!

Lets talk business… :-)
