FAVOURITE HOLIDAY DESTINATION Antibes in the South of France, we’ve been going there with friends for 20 years. We have loads of memories there, it’s a beautiful place. We’ve done lots of other travelling, and I’ve loved that but if I had to pick one place it would be Antibes.
FAVOURITE BOOK Tess of the D’Urbervilles. My youngest daughter is called Tessa. My husband bought me a first edition for our first wedding anniversary. It is a lovely book.
IF YOU WERE STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND WHAT COULD YOU NOT LIVE WITHOUT? I think it would have to be pen and paper.
DO YOU THINK THAT YOU DO WHAT YOU DO BECAUSE YOU’RE PASSIONATE ABOUT GIVING, AND DOES BEING PASSIONATE HELP YOUR LIFE? Definitely. 100%. Going back to my quote “if a job’s worth doing it’s worth doing well” I put my all into everything. My husband often asks me if I could just sit on my hands occasionally rather than waving my hand in the air and saying “yes I’ll do that” but I think “well why wouldn’t you”? Volunteering gives you such an enormous amount of pleasure and I believe that everyone has two spare hours a week, or even just an hour… just think about what you could achieve with that hour or two. Also it leads you to come across some amazing people in life, it’s just amazing. Some of them are absolutely incredible and the way that you can transform people’s lives by just giving a little of yourself is the best feeling.
