Alexandra, a 29 year old entrepreneur from West Sussex has been given a £9,500 Start-Up Loan to help develop her clothing line and resource centre for active pregnant women.
As well as funding, Alexandra has benefited hugely from the support provided to her through George Clayson, her mentor. The commercial expertise George provided Alexandra was invaluable to the growth of her business.
I have found the application process and the mentoring session incredibly helpful and believe this experiences along with the financial support will make a huge difference in taking FittaMamma to the next level. Alexandra
