Hear what Creation Station Franchisee Emma has to say: 

Creation Station Business | Art and Crafts Franchise“I could of only have dreamt of running my own business, but I mean where do you start?! Investing in my own The Creation Station Business means investing into a whole network of support, that’s really important to me.

I can gain help, advice, and support anytime. I’m learning a lot. I’ve grown my business since 2008 and now run 20 afterschool clubs each week as well as provide activities for my community.  

I feel confident and whilst not everything has gone to plan it’s good to have challenges.

Overcoming these motivates me to try even harder to be the very best I can and there is so much support to help if you get a bit stuck. I love being my own boss. I smile every day! I’ve time to sing in a choir and play saxophone in a band. Sometimes I even go out on a school night!” Emma McCalla John Inspires imaginations in Harborne & Batley

Demand for creative activities continues to increase. 

If you have a positive outlook on life, want to benefit from your own hard work and  would love to make a difference to others, then The Creation Station would love to hear from you.

Please do note, The Creation Station only award their franchise to 2% of enquirers. So if it’s OK with you, when you have a chat they will be honest whether they think they’re the right fit for you. This way they can ensure that those who are awarded this exciting opportunity can make the most of the comprehensive training and long term hand-holding support they offer.

Thank you for taking the time to read about the opportunity to bring creativity into all areas of learning, leisure and life within your community. The future is definitely creative!
