BBC Radio Leicester interview


Everything's going crazy at the moment, I don't seem to have a minute to rest, its all so fantastic but very tiring! I received lots of messages from different presenters asking me for a radio interview with BBC Radio Leicester about being a winner for the 'Stelios Awards for Disabled Entrepreneurs in the UK 2017'.

I couldn't believe it, not only was the fantastic news being spread around my local town Market Harborough, news is now spreading to Leicester! The impact of winning this award is having huge effects on my business already and I'm so grateful that this opportunity has come my way.

I wasnt quite so nervous about being interviewed this time as Ive had a few over the past couple of weeks and my confidence is definitely growing. The interview was comfortable and friendly and the staff who work for BBC Radio Leicester couldn't have made me feel more at ease, they were very kind and want to do a follow up interview all about my ceramics and workshops!

These past few weeks are turning out to be the most amazing few weeks, being a winner for the 'Stelios Awards for Disabled Entrepreneurs in the UK 2017' has been more than I could ever have asked for, hopefully this is the making for my little business and I am so excited its unbelievable!

You can listen to my interview at 10am, 8th Nov, BBC Radio Leicester 104.9 FM

...It was a very long tiring day travelling to Leicester, when I got back, once rested I set up ready for my November evening course to start. Ive got 4 lovely ladies coming for the next four weeks, I cant wait to see how they get on in our time together!
