Since September 2025
I wanted to expand my professional and personal network and contribute to the local business community. I was keen to develop my leadership and project skills outside of my day-to-day role, while connecting with like-minded professionals. The Chamber’s wide range of social opportunities particularly appealed to me, as I’m keen to broaden my network beyond work and build new friendships with people from different backgrounds and sectors.
I perform with an amateur musical theatre group in Newport and love travelling, music festivals, collecting vinyl records, cooking, reading, amateur photography, socialising with friends and the occasional (sometimes successful) craft project. I’m always up for trying something new!
The wine tasting evenings, usually centred around a particular theme, are always a personal highlight of mine, although, the forthcoming Hannover exchange was a real pull factor for joining the Chamber and meeting the Hanoverians at the 2025 Summer Social was a great experience.
Its reputation! Every time you tell someone you’ve got ties to Bristol, you immediately get a rundown of how cool it is. Great vibes, creative, alternative…anything goes!
I’ve lived in nine different towns and moved house 17 times in 14 years…and I still haven’t mastered packing a suitcase effectively.
