Arbonne Consultant – Ann Gallagher
Long Business Description

What is Arbonne...

Arbonne is a 39 year old, Swiss heritage, health and wellness company that I am so proud to be a part of. I joined in May 2013 as an Independent Consultant as I loved the products and believed in the brand promise of pure, safe and beneficial.
No nasty chemicals, no synthetic dyes, no mineral oil, no gluten or whey to name but a few and the fact that Arbonne is a Vegan company and always has been.
But as amazing as the products are, it was the opportunity to build my own business in the 'nooks and crannies' of my already busy life that kept me awake at night. This unparalleled business model, which basically turns an expense into an income, gives you the chance to own your own life, to have financial freedom for yourself and your family, to fit work around your life rather than your life around your work and to show others how they can have the same.
If this little glimpse into my vision for our future has sparked even the slightest interest with you then please get in touch so you can hear more.

Unique Kidz and Co

Unique Kidz and Co - A Charity for Disabled Children and Young People with Disabilities

Founded in 2009, Unique Kidz and Co was set up by two mums, Denise and Jane when they were unable to find suitable childcare for their own disabled children..

As mums, they'd always known that one size doesn’t fit all. Everyone is unique. For years they struggled, like so many other parents, to find the balance between work and suitable childcare. Unable to find anywhere that catered to their children’s specific needs, they decided to set something up themselves!

They had no experience in childcare or business and spent two years attending courses. They also spent a lot of time talking to other parents to find out what they needed. After months of gruelling research, legalities, training and business planning they created Unique Kidz and Co.

In the summer of 2009, they proudly opened the doors. Unique Kidz and Co’s first ever Summer Holiday Club ran with 65 children attending. Over the years the services have grown along with their children. They now run from their own building based in Morecambe and in 2016 opened 4Ever Unique to offer daytime support for young adults up to the age of 25.

The aim of the charity is to advance the social and play opportunities of children and young people with additional needs and disabilities and to include their siblings.

Come and see for yourself the amazing work that goes on at Unique Kidz and Co!

Trams

Blackpool's world famous trams operate 11 miles along the busy promenade calling at all the tourist locations from the Golden Mile and Pleasure Beach to the three piers and the Sandcastle Centre. Talk to us about advertising on our trams.

History of Blackpool Transport

Blackpool has the oldest electric street tramway in the world with records dating back to 1884 when track plans were produced for an electric tramway that would connect North and South Shore. Blackpool Corporation paid for and maintained the infrastructure, whilst the Blackpool Electric Tramway Company, formed in January 1885 provided the electrical equipment, depot and tramcars. The tramway opened on the 29th September 1885. After the second world war, there was gradual consolidation and by 1962, the trams were confined to the 11 mile route from Starr Gate to Fleetwood which still operates today.

The bus services expanded along with the town throughout the sixties, seventies and eighties. Since bus deregulation in 1986, the trams and buses have been operated by Blackpool Transport Services Ltd, a Blackpool Council Company.

While the trams themselves are owned and run by Blackpool Transport, the tramway infrastructure is currently owned by Blackpool Council and leased to the Company, which pays an annual track rental fee for the privilege.

The bus services suffered from local competition throughout the 1980s and early 90s, culminating in the purchase by Blackpool Transport of the former Lytham St Annes corporation services, which by 1993 were running as Blue Buses. The Blue Buses depot at Squires Gate was kept for several years until all operations were consolidated on one site at Rigby Road.
