Meet Claire Quigley-Ward (41), and Paul Hicks (36), founders of Pea, the children’s bedding brand that creates immersive story starters, designed to transport children into imagined worlds.

Claire and Paul believe in the power of imagination, the magical thinking of childhood, and the importance of growing creativity because creative thinkers are problem solvers and one day, our children will change the world.

Paul is a designer, who’s been drawing curious creatures since the time of scabby knees and treehouses. Claire is a business brain with a big imagination, who happens to be a mum, once massively frustrated by the unoriginality and low quality of most children’s bedding. Together, they decided to do something about it.
