I'm a social entrepreneur, business author and campaigner. I work independently, which enables me to challenge bureaucracy and champion common sense.

I converts confusing conundrums into simple solutions., then write about them! So far I've written 17 books, published by Pearson, Hodder, Wiley and a while ago now, by Hamlyn

I founded Swarm Apprenticeships in 2013, a social business that uses an enterprise qualification to connect bright young people with attitude with small business owners with aspiration. Swarm won investment from Big Issue Invest in 2014 and an RSA Scaling Grant in 2015.
I'm Patron of Norfolk & Suffolk Relate, a Vice Patron of Norfolk Community Foundation, a Fellow of the RSA and was recently appointed by the cooperative movement to the Board of Trust Norfolk-SEN, a cooperative Trust of 11 complex needs schools across Norfolk.
