Lucy Represents babyballet® at the British Franchise Association’s Empowering Women in Business Event

Our UK Managing Director, Lucy, was honoured to speak at the Empowering Women in Business event, hosted by the British Franchise Association. Joining inspiring women from across the franchising sector, Lucy shared her approach to leadership, continuous professional development and supporting franchisees to succeed.

Being invited to speak was a proud moment for Lucy and the entire babyballet family. It reflects our commitment to investing in people, encouraging growth and leading with purpose.

Leading with Purpose

At babyballet, we believe great leadership starts with continuous learning. That’s why professional development, curiosity and investing in people are central to everything we do, both at Head Office and across our franchise network.

For Lucy, learning never stands still. Instead, she actively looks for opportunities to develop new skills, embrace fresh ideas and help others reach their potential. As a result, our franchisees receive the support, encouragement and guidance they need to build successful businesses while growing as confident business owners.

Empowering Women in Business Through Development

The Empowering Women in Business event celebrates leaders who inspire others through their knowledge and experience. Lucy was proud to share how babyballet supports both personal and professional development throughout the franchise journey.

Above all, our people are at the heart of everything we do. From Head Office to every franchisee, we believe collaboration creates stronger businesses and stronger communities.

Lucy is passionate about creating an environment where people feel confident to ask questions, learn new skills and take the next step in their careers. Because of this, shared learning and continuous improvement remain key values across the babyballet network.
