"I passionately believe that there is no point in simply being the best. I think we have to be the only people who can do what we do. I want Chapel Down to be better but I also want us to be different. Like everyone else here I want to go to bed a little less stupid that I was in the morning. As a team the excitement we get is from winning friends and converts. Come and visit us and we promise to educate, entertain and inform you." Frazer Thompson Chapel Down CEO Find out more at:
