The Conference provides an opportunity for all awesome Creativity Ambassadors - our franchise partners to gather to learn, collaborate, network and celebrate.
Sarah Cressall, Founder and CEO, opened the Conference by celebrating the successes of the whole team. This included acknowledging the huge support that the Business Development Managers provide for their fellow franchisees. Sarah also thanked the Franchise partners who help with the Franchisee Advisory Council and our Marketing, Families, Education and Adult Hubs, Events and Festivals to help keep The Creation Station relevant, vibrant and responding to changes, opportunities and franchise partner requests and needs.
A massive cheer was given for the franchise partners who are celebrating their ‘Long-Inspiration Service’ of over five years: Emma McCalla-John, Charlotte Eames and Kat Howard.
Our Keynote Speaker was the phenomenal Murielle Maupoint - Co-Founder of EWIF, CEO Hope for Children, Best-selling Author and currently CEO of Play Action International.
It was a fantastic, thought-provoking and motivational talk which we thoroughly enjoyed listening to and loved taking part in the fun exercises. Our team of Creativity Ambassadors gained so much and left feeling super-charged, ready to inspire many more children and adults in their communities across the UK!
