1.2 The Market
Little Party Stars activities will be focused around children. Based on the Greater London authority update on birth trends in London we found a that the inner London boroughs have a low level of children on roll of reception in the years 2014-15 then Outer London boroughs as well it can be seen that northeast and east boroughs present an increase in numbers of births in the year 2015 and based on the mid-year report of the ONS a raising pattern in all outer boroughs, we aim for the northeast regional London market as the children are now of the minim age required for the companies’ operation.( Data.london.gov.uk, 2017)

One worrying point in children at a young age is Obesity with an alarmingly rising level for children starting primary school. A report presented by the NHS discovered that an alarming quarter of reception aged children are overweight including obese. (Digital. Nhs.uk, 2017) Parents are, therefore being encouraged to push their kids towards outdoors play. However, with the need to be protective, parents would rather be around to watch their children play. Theme parks have therefore provided a win-win situation whereby children can go and play outside and they can watch them and even join them in some games. The demand for theme parks have, therefore been on the increase as it has provided the best alternative for kids to have fun. Little Party stars are combining the amusement of theme parks and the joy of education in an entertainment program.
