Business name: Fun Science
Based: Bath

Person nominated: Cressida Bullock
I am nominating myself as I started my business when I was a student on just £100 from my student loan. That was just under four years ago.
The business is now franchised and has turned over £31,000 in the past six months with a profit of £19,000 and predicted yearly profit of £35-£40,000.
Through the business I have given part time jobs to eight staff and provided placement opportunities for three students. Starting a business at the age of 19 while in full-time education was not easy, but hard work and determination have got me to where I am now.
The business has also become a big part of the local community and inspires over 250 children each week.
