AWESOME!
I adore the portraits Ainslie did of me. I have some as private portraits for my family, and some for charity auctions … and every time I look at them I marvel at his skilful use of colour. Patsy would be rather thrilled too, even though she hasn’t really got a wall to hang them on, as I have. I love them.

Women on Boards Services Women on Boards exists to help people make the right connections and career choices to take on a board role as a nonexecutive director, trustee or governor, or to get to the top within their own company. We are breaking down the barriers to entry to the boardroom and building the pipeline of board-ready women, minorities and like minded men who come to us for support. Women on Boards operates from the principle that as talent and ambition are equally distributed between men and women, organisations in all sectors need to work towards gender balance at board and leadership level. We also know that diversity leads to more innovation, a better quality of decision-making and correlates with better business results overall. We provide information, encouragement and connections to help our members target suitable non-executive positions. We also offer leadership skills development and support boards to recruit for diversity. For more information: www.womenonboards.net Email: contact@womenonboards.co.uk 10 Telephone: 020 3925 4080

Mel Organic Retail I planted the MelOrganic seed 4 years ago - an organic, vegan, skincare & wellness company which cares about the planet, making and creating products with love. I want to raise awareness about how beneficial natural organic products are for our skin, and how harmful mass made products are, containing SLS/SLES and many other additives we’ve never heard of, let alone can pronounce! As long as I can remember, I have always had a curiosity and passion for essential oils and their power to heal. I think this stems from my late father who was a chartered chemist. He would do ‘magic tricks’ mixing chemicals, making them change colour, and more often than not explode! I have been blending oils for my children’s ailments for 30 years, rather than using chemical ridden, over the counter remedies.
