A fantastic day at the CAA Ignite Conference!

Holly headed over to Sky Studios to catch up with fellow UK children’s activity providers, share best practice and learn about the latest tools and techniques to help us, our coaches and our franchises deliver the best, safest and most enjoyable developmental drama sessions possible.

A big thank you to for her brilliant campaign. Big Mouth was proud to support the mission to “jump the inclusion gap” by signing her petition calling on the Government to create a SEND Access Fund, helping more children access and enjoy the activities they deserve.

also reinforced something we’ve always believed in at Big Mouth: the importance of play in children’s lives and development. It’s great to see other organisations championing its benefits and sharing the commitment to giving children the best possible experiences.

And a big shout-out to our mates at and !

We’re heading away with plenty of new ideas, useful insights and renewed enthusiasm for what we do. Thanks to the Children's Activities Association and everyone who made the day so valuable!

Pawsitive vibes this morning! 🐾

Whilst our Saturday sessions get underway, we’re busy behind the scenes prepping for camps, new clubs and programs, and new Big Mouth branches opening up! 🤩

Our four-legged office buddy, however, has been keeping an eye on us, spreading positive vibes, and reminding us of the importance of a healthy work/life balance… one walkies break at a time!

Sometimes stepping away from our desks and getting some fresh air is just what we need. Good for the heart, mind and soul! 💚

Every child is different. And that’s exactly how it should be.

At Big Mouth Theatre, we know that every child who walks through our doors brings their own unique personality, needs, strengths and abilities. And we believe every single one of them deserves the chance to shine.

For some children, that might mean having the time and space to warm up to a new idea. For others, it might be a little extra, hands-on support when reading a script. And for some, it’s simply about having a safe, welcoming space where they can feel comfortable being their true, authentic selves.

Whatever a child needs to feel supported, included and confident, we endeavour to meet them where they are.

Because at Big Mouth, it’s not about every child being the same. It’s about helping every child find their own way to grow, express themselves and discover what they’re capable of.

Wondering whether Big Mouth Theatre is the right fit for your child?

That’s exactly what our 2 free taster sessions are for!

No pressure. No awkwardness. No financial commitment.

Just a couple of weeks for you and your child to get a genuine feel for our clubs, meet our team, experience what we do and decide whether it feels right for you both.

Because sometimes, the best way to know is simply to give it a try!

📩 Pop us a message if you’d like to know more, or book your child’s FREE taster sessions here:

We can’t wait to welcome you!

🎉 HOORAY FOR OUR EASTLEIGH BRANCH!

We’re absolutely thrilled to share that our Eastleigh Theatre Program has successfully met all of Ofsted’s requirements and expectations following their recent inspection!

It isn’t compulsory for children’s activity providers to be registered with Ofsted, and many providers choose not to be. For us, however, the safety, wellbeing and care of the children we look after is incredibly important. We take our responsibility seriously, and we want our families to know just how committed we are to creating a safe and supportive environment.

As part of our voluntary Ofsted registration, our Eastleigh Theatre Program was inspected last weekend. The inspection looked beyond simply understanding our company policies and compliance requirements - it assessed that our team knew how and when to apply them, alongside ensuring our procedures and safeguarding practices met the required standards.

We’re delighted to announce that we fully met all the requirements and expectations set by Ofsted! 🙌

A massive congratulations to our amazing Eastleigh team for their continued dedication to putting child safety and wellbeing at the forefront of everything they do.

We couldn’t be prouder!

Celebrating the Incredible People Behind the Magic! ✨

Today, we’re sharing our utmost gratitude to the incredible drama coaches across our after-school clubs, theatre programs and drama camps.

You bring our developmental learning framework to life every single day. You embrace the challenges of adapting activities and experiences to make every session as accessible, inclusive and engaging as possible, ensuring every child has the opportunity to participate, grow and shine.

Most importantly, you inspire hundreds of children every week to believe in themselves, discover their unique abilities and have the confidence to give it a go.

Your creativity, patience, energy and passion make such a difference. Thank you for creating spaces where children can express themselves, take risks, build confidence and, most importantly, feel that they belong! 🙌
