Clare’s story

“Is it just my story? Lots of people have helped me along the way and for that I am very grateful. They had trust in me when I was on the verge of jacking it all in. They all kept me going. So I suppose this is OUR story really.”

 

It all started with the Princes’ Trust. Clare has been passionate about design for as long as she can remember, often wondering how she could improve existing products. After earning a degree in advertising and pregnant with her first child, Clare decided to start her first business in Glitter Gassware.

However, the 2008 financial crisis forced her to sell the business. Despite facing skepticism about her new idea for Bottlesoc, she persevered and launched during the Global Pandemic of 2020. Clare recognized the growing need for sustainable living and created her product to help people stay hydrated on the go..

Clare is now dedicated to supporting start-ups, believing they are essential for innovation. She enjoys empowering young people and finds fulfillment in motivating others.

“I’m certainly no business Guru but I had to produce the Bottlesoc. I knew it would work and I didn’t want to keep thinking what if…. I just had to do it”
