Check Out The Business Beat This Week Featuring Summer Soul, Nish Security, Weed Man and Counselling Connection

PTBOCanada is delighted to be running the Business Beat columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition…

Following on the success of their first venture with yoga and Pilates on the Island Princess Liftlock Cruises boat, Summer Soul are doing it again on Oct. 11.

Take in the fall colours on an exclusive 90-minute floating wellness experience that invites you to move, breathe, and toast to self-care on beautiful Little Lake. There will be an opportunity to connect, mingle, and celebrate. Summer Soul is celebrating its own two-year anniversary by continuing to innovate and find creative ways to offer yoga and Pilates. Book your tickets at summersoul.ca.

Nish Security are celebrating five years providing professional security guard services across Ontario, including right here in Peterborough.

President Will Rogers is a Fleming graduate from the policing program, but was injured by an impaired driver. Still wanting to be involved in protecting people, he went into a carer in security. Nish Security provide services for a wide range of corporate, residential, retail, and event needs. You can connect with them through LinkedIn, TikTok, or email nishontario@gmail.com.

Weed Man is collecting donations of non-perishable food and household items for Kawartha Food Share, Kawartha Lakes Food Source, United Way Haliburton Kawartha Lakes, and Northumberland’s Fare Share Food Bank.

They will conveniently collect items during customers’ regularly scheduled lawn care services on now through to October 24. It’s part of the company’s second annual Grassroots Giving campaign, which aims to help the 1 in 5 Canadian families that don’t have adequate access to quality food and other basic needs.

Counselling Connection are celebrating a new location at 169 Lansdowne St. E.

It’s the culmination of the shared vision of three Trent University psychology graduate students. Danielle, Korri, and Nicolle discovered their shared passion for mental health and community care while studying together at Trent. After completing their Master’s degrees, they opened a small counselling practice in Bowmanville. Eleven years later, they’re opening a brand-new office in the city where they got their start.
