Hack Back CIC


Today's #IFB50* is Anita Morris
Name of Business: Hack Back CIC

Website address: www.hack-back.org.uk   Twitter : @burrowingbolt



Tell us about your business: I started out with a company called Holden Morris Consulting working with birds of prey focussing on leadership and development. I then realised that I wanted to work with birds of prey in a therapeutic setting. The Centre for Entrepreneurship helped me to set up, supported all my work and also supported me in the decision to set up a social enterprise.  
Who are your customers? NHS, Special educational needs schools, care home groups, Bupa and the Merseyside probation trust.

Have you employed anyone since starting up?  We have provided paid and unpaid experience to several LJMU post graduate students that has given them the experience they needed to go on to get wonderful jobs. We also supported them through the job search process. A few examples - Suzannah Moon is now a manager within NHS, Maeve Gallagher is now in Talent Management for a well known brand, Marketa Krzokova is now a Learning and Development manager in a large law firm.

What is the best thing about owning you own business? Having flexibility and you are responsible for your own success

What is your top business tip?  
"Seek help and don’t try and do everything yourself"
