Just a few of the small and independent businesses we support, promote & collaborate with as part of our commitment to community.
We have always worked alongside our local small businesses & will always support the work & efforts of local entrepreneurs, start-up’s & community interest groups as part of our #BildungTogether project.
Rebuilding our neighbourhoods, together as communities made by us & designed for us, one small business at a time…

Community Project - Outdoors Education- Rewilding Children
We want to inspire children to climb trees in the woods, to run in wild meadows, explore rock pools along the shore, scramble over the rocks, splash in muddy puddles, paddle in streams, pick wild fruits, light fires, make bows and arrows, to go outside, get muddy, make friends and fall in love with nature again! We want children to play free and be wild.
To do this, we want to help everyone to break down the barriers that stop children playing outside. We want to support parents, families and communities to work together so we can all be outside more and we can all have the confidence to let them play freely. We need to rewild our children; for them, for us and for the future sustainability of our planet.
“We are so lucky to have Project Rewild in our town. My children always come home tired, muddy and full of magical stories of their adventures. This is what all children should be doing.” | Parent – Molly
Bespoke Suits - Tailor Made
My name is Kasey and I grew up in a typical South East London family. Though I was smart in school, I got in trouble with the police and lost friends to violence at a young age. I found myself homeless at 21 but my business dreams made me completely change my life.
After much planning and graft, I launched The Suit Group making bespoke tailored suits for men and women across the UK. We have an office in the City of London and have already made over 300 suits, shirts and jackets. Short term, we plan to grow the team and raise investments. Long term, I’d like to buy my own house and take my family on a mad holiday!
“Truly exceptional service and product from a guy who is clearly passionate about his business, suits and his customers’ absolute satisfaction. I couldn’t recommend Kasey and his Suit Group business more highly.” | Customer – Will L.
