Proud moment

My proudest moment was completing the 2021 London Marathon in under four hours (pretty good with my little legs), raising over £5,000 for charity.

Most memorable day

The birth of my 2 children – can’t choose between them… (in public anyway) so they are my two most memorable days.

I have known Paul for more than 15 years and through this time he has always been a brilliant partner for me. He has the ability to listen and quickly diagnose the need, challenge the options available and then find top notch talent…. and it’s always speedy as he’s so well connected. I enjoy working and problem solving with him and would highly recommend his partnership.
