ABOUT US

We are a small business with a big heart. Lead by founder Jade Ilke, at Designing Futures we build teams; a team that is made up of the right people who have the most suitable expertise. This allows us to be more dynamic, more creative and more versatile.

Having set up and ran a variety of different types of businesses, including a charity and social enterprise, this format is what is best suited for Jade at this stage of her life.
