MAKING A DIFFERENCE!
Social Moments is a micro-business built through my love of baking. To me, baking is about making friends, having fun and making a biscuit that is a bite above the rest.
It all started from an idea I shared with a friend while we enjoyed a cuppa over a yo-yo biscuits. I wanted to share my love of baking with others, but I needed a brand name.
My friend, who was from UK, told me she called the Yo-Yo biscuits ‘Melting Moments’ back home. We smiled as we realised we were enjoying a ‘Social Moment’. And so my business began…
I couldn’t have done it without EdAble‘s support. EdAble is a social enterprise that is set up to increase work opportunities for people with disabilities.
Contacting EdAble with my business idea, they provided me with the guidance, tools and network I needed to build my business and extend it to success within the community.
I hope that when people see how much fun I have at Social Moments, they will reach out and speak to EdAble to gain guidance to set up their business dream.
