Rachel Burden is joined by Sporting Futures founder Jill Eaton and her son Tommie, who launched Bambuu Brush, to discuss why it's so important for you, the parents, to keep an open mind when it comes to your kids' futures.
Show Notes
In episode four host Rachel Burden explores why with so many options available for your children post-16, it's so important for you, the parents, to keep an open mind when it comes to their future.
Rachel chats to Jill Eaton, who set up the training provider Sporting Futures in 2011 to create opportunities and raise aspirations through apprenticeships. Jill is a mum of four and she’s made sure that her own kids weren’t pushed down one route. Her second guest is Jill's son Tommie, who worked in education himself but then in 2019 he set up his own company, Bambuu Brush with his partner Rebecca.
