YoungPlanet is a circular-economy parenting app run by husband-and-wife founders Jason and Emma Ash that lets parents list or request a range of children’s items from books and clothes to toys and baby equipment. The app is downloadable UK-wide. The company focuses on sustainable parenting by facilitating reuse and exchange of children’s goods. YoungPlanet intends to use new funding to accelerate national expansion and to enhance functionality, including adding gamification and integrated postage. The business was valued at £6.5 million pre-money at the time of the raise. The company recently completed a Crowdcube campaign to support these product and growth plans.
