Our lovely Charlotte Charlesworth is taking on this challenge and raising funds in memory of her much loved Nan who recently passed away. What a wonderful tribute to her and all of us at Bright & Beautiful Derby want to wish her luck and love for the event. We can also help with the laundry after this one!!! Bring in your muddy stuff Charlotte!!

I’m taking part in the 5K Muddy Run for Cancer Research UK in memory of my lovely nan, who sadly passed away on 28th October last year. She was bravely fighting breast cancer before her passing. This run is my way of honouring her and helping others who are still fighting. Every donation, no matte...

Today we’re celebrating Ellie’s 4 year anniversary with us!

Ellie leads our lovely Orange Team with such care and consistency. She truly looks after both her team and her clients, always striving for high standards and delivering beautiful results.

She’s the kind of person clients trust implicitly and teams feel supported by.

In an industry where the average length of service for frontline cleaners is often less than a year, 4 years is something really special.

But she’s not the exception in our business…

Across our team: Our average length of service is now approaching 5 years

- We’ve built up over 65 years of combined experience

-All within an 8-year-old business

That kind of longevity doesn’t happen by accident.

It creates:
✔️ Consistency clients can rely on
✔️ Higher standards, because teams truly know their homes
✔️ Stronger relationships and trust
✔️ A genuine sense of pride in the work

And ultimately, it creates a better experience for everyone.

For me, it’s always been about building something that works for people as well as profit.

Creating an environment where people feel valued, supported, and part of something.

Because when you get that right, everything else follows.

If you’re free and fancy a night of music, friendship and a bit of joy… we’d love to see you there!

Month end… not everyone’s favourite part of running a business 😅
But I’ve realised something recently — delegation really is a skill you have to keep refining.
Over time, I’ve learned to step back from the parts that drain me, and lean into the bits I genuinely enjoy (yes… there are some!). The overview, the sense-checking, making sure everything lines up — that’s my zone.
The detail? Safely in the hands of people far better than me at it.
And today, our newest recruit Rosie was fully involved 🐾
(quality control, morale boosting… and possibly chasing a few receipts around the office).
It’s taken me a while to get here, but building a business isn’t about doing everything — it’s about creating the right structure, trusting your people, and knowing where you add the most value.
And when that clicks… everything runs a little smoother.
