I am so excited to announce the launch of the Club Hub Podcast. I have always wanted to launch my own podcast to raise more awareness for the Children’s Activities Industry. Letting parents and carers know what goes on behind the scenes, the amount of passion and energy these activity providers put in to their businesses.
Thank you so much to Cerys Keneally for being the first sponsor of the Club Hub Podcast. Cerys Keneally helps children’s activity & service providers to approach schools & nurseries without cold calling, so they can grow their business with confidence and have a bigger impact on children’s lives. You can get in touch with Cerys via her website – www.ceryskeneally.com/

Mum of 3 (if you include the dog) and a primary school teacher with over a decade of teaching experience. Plans to open The Little Play Village started in early 2020 while on maternity leave, indoors during the lock down. She rapidly turned to role play as a means to engage and entertain her toddler, realising how much she had always loved creating play set ups for him. She began to dream of running her own role play village and spent hours researching how she could make it a reality. With the support of her family and close friends, The Little Play Village was born. https://thelittleplayvillage.co.uk/
