making projects happen - bringing ideas out of the mist and onto solid ground
Cultural entrepreneurship
Over the last two decades I have been the proud co-founder of a broad range of businesses which, in their own small way, are trying to shift the cultural landscape in which they operate to become more caring, connected and prosperous. I have learned the hard way what works and what doesn't. Through co-creating one of Bristol's biggest and most celebrated co-working spaces, to co-founding a range of well loved food, drinks and events businesses; I have had the honour of seeing a diverse range of fresh ideas transform from conversations over a pint, into cultural institutions that support whole communities and permanently enrich the wider cultural landscape.
