Carly Hughes, 37, works part time in early years childcare, and has noticed the benefits of outside play and learning for young children. Realising that there was a gap in the local market, Carly started up Little Wilds, an all-weather, outdoor stay and play for children under 5, opening its doors in April this year.
Carly said: ‘I thought I would create a place for the community where parents and grandparents could come along and let their children explore and get messy.’
