As a social commentator it’s always a privilege to add my contribution on real life events and the impact. But more importantly providing practical solutions…..
I will continue to be the voice amplifying the complex struggles many families in the UK are facing. We hear daily on the news about low income families sinking deeper into poverty.
The UK Governments new guidance aimed at making school uniforms more “affordable”, would mean families will save money from next year. According to 2015 research which found parents saved almost £50.
This is just one aspect of what low income families are faced with. Many are going to have to choose between Heating or Eating.
This is an absolute disgrace which requires Urgent intervention and immediate solutions
“Not Next Year” But Now!!!!
I hope to see practical financial support solutions in place over the coming months.
This is a very serious matter.
If you or anyone you know requires support please check out @youngmumssupportnetwork my team and I are working very hard behind the scenes to assist families where we can. #education #schooluniform #risingcosts #lowincome #families #martinlewis #ymsn #moneymatters #mumsandmoney
BBC News had me on the news again this week discussing the cost of living and the significant work my company is doing, @youngmumssupportnetwork are committed to ensuring that we provide the best support and access to relevant services to help those most in need.
Our Mums and Money program was a great success we work with over 150 mums in under six months.
The need for financial support has enhanced for so many and become apparent that our services are required.
The more we grow as a company I as the founder am going to ensure that we develop the resources for the business to be able to flourish and build on the great work.
Thank you to our funders and sponsors who keep us going and growing as a business.

It’s been a less visible online type of year , more present in motherhood, healing, and leadership.
2025 was a year of becoming, resilient, rooted, and real.
It was a year of growth in quiet moments, lessons learned through challenges, and strength discovered in the spaces between.
A year of showing up where it mattered most for my children, for myself, and for the journey I’m building.
Not many have made it this far, and I am truly thankful to God for keeping me.
I’m grateful for the love and support along the way.
Here’s to 2026 another year to grow, thrive, rise and shine. #2026 #fyp #nye

After taking a much-needed sabbatical, I’m finally sharing a glimpse of my April adventures.
The U.S. was nothing short of magical, offering exactly what I needed—a priceless time with my family.
Atlanta was special, Washington
DC was eventful “My God is truly amazing”🙏🏾
We explored South Jersey, New York, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Atlantic City, Philadelphia, and Maryland,
This trip not only provided clarity but also inspired the significant decisions I’m making for my future. Still not decided if I am ready to relocate as yet but the option is there and could become a reality. Time will tell…
Excited for what’s ahead as I’m stepping into a new chapter in business with fresh opportunities, more to share soon.
Expect a shift in my tone as I embrace this new phase.
Meanwhile, TikTok and LinkedIn will be my new residence from now on!
Don’t worry I’ll still pop up here occasionally and show some love ❤️
It’s My Birthday Month 🎉💃🏽

Sabbatical update!
Life in the USA has been quite the adventure for me as a female boss. While the idea of permanently positioning myself here is still open for discussion, the flexibility of conducting business from anywhere provides me with options.
Currently taking what I consider a needed sabbatical to figure out my next steps whilst cherishing quality family time with my two children, sister, niece and other family members who live out here.
Together, we’ve explored nearly seven states so far.
Work meetings are scheduled for next week.
The adventure continues… #adventure #2024 #america #sabatical #fyp
