Rozanne Peacock
Frustrated by the lack of interesting children's stories online, Rozanne began writing her own. With support and encouragement, she developed her stories into a book which is now available in digital and hard copy. She also discovered that she has a real talent for illustration!
Zola's Cabs
Nokuzola had a problem. She needed reliable transport to get to and from work, but taxis were expensive and the contract operators were unwilling to service her town. Nokuzola had a drivers license, but she did not own her own car. She brought her problem to us.
After a discussion and throwing ideas around, she decided that she could buy a vehicle and run her own contract transport operation taking other people to work. We helped her do the costings to work out how much she would need to charge, and we helped her make a simple business plan to get funding to buy a car, and Zola's Cabs was born.
Homegrown nursery
Homegrown nursery was founded by Linda Edwards, who sadly passed away. Her widower valiantly kept the nursery going in her memory, and the nursery will now be merging with another small nursery in Bathurst, Eastern Cape. We provided encouragement, business planning, and event planning services to the new owner Lee Webb. Lee will be re-launching the nursery on Spring Day (1 September) 2026.
Scruffy
Scruffy the Land Rover Defender is a refurbishment project. We help Scruffy's owner to plan and monitor the project, which has to fit around a busy work and life schedule. This kind of refurbishment can be slow, irregular and very frustrating, leading to delays and disappointments. We check in regularly to help keep the project moving forward, and provide encouragement on progress.
