Collaboration Green Team! 👊🏼💚
This week, we're spotlighting a slightly different member collaboration as we celebrate the launch of Make Good Grow's brand-new website.
Team Green and Ghost Design have been working on a revamped, modern, and user-focused website that captures Make Good Grows's fun and engaging personality and highlights its vibrant mission and story.
Ghost Design has injected some new life into Make Good Grow's branding, using fresh pastel colours that evoke warmth and trust and a new clear, accessible font for enhanced user experience.
We're so excited to have matched our in-house 'do-good' department with Ghost Design Consultants Ltd., a highly talented clan of website designers and developers within the Mill Street building.
Check out the new Make Good Grow website—we're eager to hear what you think!

Lunch & Learn x Zing Performance. 🧠
This week's member collaboration put a real ZING in our step!
Mill Street member Gareth Dore and his dad Wynford joined us for May's lunch-and-learn session. Backed by neuroscience, Gareth and Wynford have developed uniquely tailored plans and programmes to tackle stress, anxiety, attention, overwhelm, time management, and poor memory.
Zing Performance is the only program that addresses the root cause of learning struggles. By teaching users how to increase their mental capacity through coordination exercises, you can grow neural pathways and enhance cognitive capacity.
Lunch & Learn is a monthly member-exclusive workshop where we gather on the sofas to discuss a topic of choice. Together, we share our thoughts, opinions, top tips, and struggles while enjoying lunch and each other's company.
Huge thank you to Gareth and Wynford for collaborating with us!

MEET YOUR PANELLIST
WE’RE T-MINUS 2 DAYS AWAY FROM WINNING ON YOUR DOORSTEP IV 🙌🏼🤩
Meet your first panellist, Kate Berski,
Kate is the exited co-founder of CURLSMITH- The first gourmet haircare brand specifically created for curly hair, inspired and developed from generations of homemade hair remedies.
After selling her shares in Curlsmith, Kate turned to social media to help quarter-lifers overcome life goal anxiety. As an entrepreneur turned writer, Kate is currently working on her first book, 30-phobia, and is on a mission to make life easier for the next generation of women in their 30’s,
Kate is passionate about closing the ‘expectation gap’ and debunking the belief that young women have to follow a socially accepted timeline to be successful. She’s a strong believer that your 30s should be some of your best years rather than seeing 30 as the deadline.
Kate will be joining the panel alongside Ed James and Seb Mills, to share her wisdom, life lessons, mental health tips, and experience with exiting a highly successful beauty business.
We’re so excited to welcome Kate to the stage this Thursday evening for the 4th edition of Winning On Your Doorstep, kindly sponsored by our partners at The University of Warwick and Warwickshire County Council.

This Valentine's Day, 4 Mill Street members joined forces to create something special for freelancers. ❤️
Katie, Tom, Lisa and Verity have created a short film that prompts freelancers to reignite their passion and remind themselves why they fell in love with their businesses in the first place.
The short promo incorporates both video and motion graphics to complement each other's skill sets and create something that helps business owners rediscover their creativity.
Tom is a freelance cinematographer and filmmaker who creates corporate and branded content and narrative short films. His work ranges from producing videos on his own with his production company BRAID to working with a larger team as a freelancer.
Tom set up the green screen and directed Caitlyn during the shoot using his own equipment. He then went on to edit the project, which involved cutting, colour grading, recording Verity's voiceover, and finding the right music for the job.
Katie is a motion and graphic designer who loves to create engaging and meaningful experiences. She is passionate about making meaningful and important designs for good causes and good people, with collaboration and change-making at the forefront of her process. Katie designed the motion graphics to enhance the video, alongside creating thumbnails and supporting social media posts, bringing her vision to life.
With the help of copywriter Lisa Taylor and voice actor Verity Pabla, Tom and Katie have produced a visual reminder that we should share the love with freelancers.
Great work, guys! 🥂
