In Business with: SS9 is an informal business podcast, brought to you by Charlotte Wood from Rosewood Financial Planning, and Emma Smith from Los Social Ltd.

We are both passionate about how our work supports our local area, so we set out to create something that gives local business people a platform on which to share their stories, their values, as well as a way of promoting their offerings and increasing awareness.

We're putting the spotlight on the voices behind the brands in Leigh-on-sea, Westcliff, and the surrounding areas. Series 2 focuses on those who have gone into business with a friend, relative, or partner - we're seeing what happens when you mix business with pleasure!

Episode #10 features Emily & Gordon, founders of Indirock, and the husband and wife team who are about to open a brand new bouldering wall in Southend-on-sea. Bouldering (or indoor climbing) is HUGE and there are over 30 walls in London already. They both love climbing and after moving to the area realised they'd have to travel to get their fix, so they decided to open their own wall! They are also partnering with Hugo's Pantry who will be running the coffee shop in the centre.

To find out more about Indirock follow them on Instagram & Facebook @indirock_ or visit their website www.indirock.co.uk. They are launching a Crowdfunding campaign on 5th November and are offering some awesome rewards in exchange for a pledge which will go towards getting the wall ready to open in early 2021. Check out their social for the Crowdfunding campaign link!
