TheBusinessDesk.com will be in conversation with three business leaders at the next Women in Business Lunch.

Shelina Begum will be joined by Jennie Johnson, Beckie Taylor and Rachel Coxon who will share their journey and give their insights into growing and developing a successful business.

Jennie Johnson founded nursery group Kids Allowed which was later bought by Kids Planet.

She ‘came out of a retirement’ to create a new parenting app – My First Five Years – which she launched with friend Alistair Bryce-Clegg a year ago.

The app aims to help busy parents with expert advice to guide their child(ren) through their first five years.

Jennie, who was awarded an MBE in 2016 for services to apprenticeships, is passionate about values driven companies and ‘high performing, happy teams.’
