Tell us about your business:
At the heart of our business is the transformative power of Biophilic design, focusing on creating environments that nurture health and wellbeing. By integrating nature with the built environment, we enhance mental, emotional, and physical wellness, ensuring spaces not only foster relaxation and reduce stress but also stimulate creativity and productivity. Our approach considers the multifaceted relationship between people and their surroundings, offering a holistic solution to living, working, and learning spaces. This ensures a balance that positively impacts well-being, making our designs essential for anyone seeking a harmonious and healthy lifestyle.
How would $5k or $10k enable you to create more profit and impact in your business?
Securing the $10k grant would be a game-changer for our mission to craft Biophilic spaces specifically for dementia patients. This funding would empower us to delve into groundbreaking research, extend our reach through strategic marketing, and launch educational initiatives for caregivers. More than boosting our project capacity and profitability, this investment would magnify our impact on enhancing dementia care. It underlines our commitment to demonstrating the transformative effects of nature on mental health, reinforcing our dedication to improving the lives of those with dementia through thoughtful, nature-inspired design.
Please outline what you would spend the grant on:
The $10k would be allocated:
• Research and Development (40%): Enhancing understanding of biophilic design's impact on dementia, enabling creation of effective and innovative environments.
• Training Programs (30%): Developing and delivering comprehensive training to caregivers and healthcare staff, ensuring therapeutic potential of our designs is fully utilised.
• Marketing and Awareness (30%): Expanding our reach to more healthcare facilities and families affected by dementia, highlighting the transformative power of biophilic design in improving outcomes and quality of life.
This approach ensures that every dollar spent directly contributes to strategic intent - expanding our impact, enhancing the effectiveness of our work in dementia care.
