The people behind MUMZ project

Princess and Antonio Perpiglia, The founders This isn't a business venture for us, it's personal. Between us, we've got nearly 50 years of experience working with young people, and we've seen firsthand how the right support can completely change someone's trajectory.

Princess

Has been teaching for over 20 years and currently runs her own childcare business. She's worked with kids of all ages and abilities, and she gets that everyone learns differently. She's also a foster carer herself, so she understands the care system from the inside.

Antonio

Brings something different to the table, he's spent 30 years in hospitality across Europe, which might sound random, but it means he knows how to create environments where people feel welcome and can thrive. Plus, he can actually teach you to cook properly, not just survive on takeaways.

Wendy Hoyte

Our matching coordinator Wendy has been fostering kids with complex needs for 15 years. She's qualified in mental health first aid and really understands the challenges care leavers face. She's the one who makes sure you're matched with the right support and living situation.

Steven Bound,

The guy who keeps everything running Steven has 20 years of management experience and makes sure our properties are actually nice places to live, not just basic accommodation. He thinks about the details that make a house feel like a home.
