&lt;p&gt;From a kitchen table start up, to a world wide brand.&amp;nbsp; We manufacture eco, ethical Giant Bubble Toys in the valleys of Snowdonia, North Wales.&amp;nbsp; Our mix is made to a secret recipe containing 97% distilled Welsh water and 3% pure magic, and a trace of Welsh Mountain dragon essence. Our mixes are guaranteed phosphate and &lt;u&gt;palm oil free &lt;/u&gt;and we work hard to reduce surfactants&amp;nbsp;whilst increasing performance.&amp;nbsp; We make all our bubble wands by hand from sustainably sourced wood, and all&amp;nbsp;our bubble ropes are made of 100% natural untreated cotton.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We have won numerous awards for our work, and we are also two times Guinness World Record holders.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve always worked for myself and been a bit of a maverick. &amp;nbsp;I started in business probably at the age of 8, making and selling beaded bracelets which I would sell on the passeggiata in Liguria in Italy where I grew up. &amp;nbsp;I believe life is a great adventure and this has allowed me to have a wonderful and eclectic journey along the way. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
I&amp;rsquo;ve always worked freelance, self-employed, or running my own business. &amp;nbsp;I left home at 17, I&amp;rsquo;ve worked as an interpreter, a market-researcher, a professional sailor, a marine biologist, an artist, a boat builder, an ethnographer. &amp;nbsp;I went to Uni after my first two children were born, and undertook my degree in Sustainable Tourism, and my Masters in Marine Conservation whilst a single parent. &amp;nbsp; I have sailed across the Atlantic, I worked with an indigenous tribe in the rainforests of Central America &amp;ndash; with my children in tow. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
In 2011 I set up and started Dr Zigs. I came across the bubbles thanks to my youngest son Ziggy &amp;ndash; as a toddler Ziggy loved bubbles used to get crazy giggling fits when he saw them. &amp;nbsp;From a curious hobby to a kitchen table start up, we are now award winning for our sustainable approach to business &amp;ndash; and manufacture and produce some of the highest quality and most eco-friendly, low plastic, palm-oil free, bubbles in the whole world.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Dr Zigs has become the perfect vehicle for allowing me to explore a creative business flair, and a passion for entrepreneurship, imbued with the ethical and environmental drive which has so influenced my life. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Running Dr Zigs allows me to be innovative and disruptive, and all the while spreading happiness - one bubble at a time! &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Day to day, I still love travelling, love the outdoors, and growing my own veg. &amp;nbsp;I&amp;#39;m still passionate about human rights, the environment and our oceans. I love to sail, and love my other job of being a mother to three of the most awesome people in the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
