💙 Why We’re Passionate About This in Swindon & Wiltshire
At Hello Little Genius, we believe that every child should have the chance to learn through creativity, exploration, and play—no matter their background. Based in Swindon, Wiltshire, we’re passionate about providing unique, high-quality learning experiences that go beyond the classroom. In Swindon, 27.5% of households with young people under 18 were living in poverty in 2023, with certain wards experiencing even higher rates.
