In this podcast Chantal chats with Angela Cochrane from The Future Care Project a start-up social enterprise she has built and thrown herself into while caring for her three young children.

What began as a little funded project with the Goondiwindi Chamber of Commerce nearly two years ago has evolved into a fulltime social enterprise business and full-heart passion project for Ange, as she tells the story of how childcare and a flourishing economy are very much connected.

Without childcare, women cannot re-enter the workforce and this is proving a huge problem for businesses all around regional Australia who are desperate for workers.

Angela has thrown herself in to solving this very big problem that not only affects mothers and families, but affects the whole Australian economy.

You will be very inspired by this ball of rurally-based, entrepreneurial energy Angela Cochrane, and you will want to get behind her new social enterprise – The Future Care Project.

Enjoy!
