Birju Ghelani – I set-up George’s Nursery Schools in 1994 with my wife, Jaimina and we currently have 5 sites in the Leicestershire area.
Our aim is to develop children socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually by providing a professional service in a caring and stimulating environment.
Whilst building up St George’s Nursery Schools, I have been busy supporting the local community and have held various positions.
Some of these are listed below:

1. Board member at Heartsearch. This is a local charity promoting better awareness and fund research into the causes, symptoms, prevention and treatment of heart disease
2. Board member of Strategic Fundraising Committee, Member of Council, University of Leicester
3. In-coming President of The Thursday Club – a business club made up of local businessmen and professionals
4. Past, Non Executive Director of Leicester Shire Connexions
5. Past Advisor to Leicester City Council on best value practice and Childcare issues
6. Past committee member of Lohana Mahajan, a business caste within the Gujarati community
7. Past Vice present of Thurnby Lions Club

Over 8.5 years ago I set-up Healing Little Hearts with Dr Sanjiv Nichani. I am the Chair, Co founder and Trustee of Healing Little Hearts. I share Sanjiv’s dream to make HLH a Global Foundation whereby we will work in Asia, Africa and perhaps even South/Central America.
Outside of work and HLH, I enjoy playing golf, bridge and Martial Arts and I enjoy holidays with my family.
