We're all systems glow!

A BLACKPOOL business is shining above the rest and planning to expand following a glowing start to its trading.

Theresa and Alber Goldberg launched GloMania, which designs and makes ceilings for homes and businesses, last year.

The North Shore firm has created designs for a number of charitable projects, including Booth Hall Children's Hospital in Manchester and Blackpool's Donna's Dream House.

Its success has helped more than 120 artists across the globe, who have worked with the company, start up their own businesses.

The company has also scooped a number of awards since it was established.

It's latest prize saw them collect the Business of the Month award from the Northern Lights business programme at the University of Central Lancashire .

Mr Goldberg said: "We were shocked and amazed to win – it really means a lot to be recognised by Northern Lights for our hard work.

"We are continually developing new products at the same time as giving back to the community so we hope this will make us strong candidates in the competition for Business of the Year."

And the company's success has, in part, come about via the support of mentor Richard Karcperek from the Guardian Angel Entrepreneurs Network.

The network is part of a suite of enterprise and business support programmes under Blackpoolunlimited.com, which helps new businesses.

Mr Goldberg said: "We're very creative and full of ideas to take our business forward, Richard acts as our sounding board.

"It is an excellent relationship, he has a point of view we really respect, he understands what we are trying to achieve and uses his wealth of business knowledge to get us there".

"When we hit a new hurdle in projecting our business forward Richard is there for us.

"With him it means we can take a step back, re- evaluate what we need to do and work out the best way to do it."
