I've only met Paul in person once, but I keep running into him online at every turn. He is the epitome of a champion of the #FamBiz world, and if there were more people like Paul in this space it would be even better. This field of #FamBiz and those who inhabit it could use more people like Paul, who live and breathe this world. He also has a very high 'give a sh*t' factor which I always admire in people.

Paul and the team at FBU are incredible advocates for family businesses. Paul works ceaselessly to promote the economic contribution of family firms. He can always be relied upon to offer insightful input, provide fantastic advice and valuable contributions with useful resources. He is a true stalwart of the family business sector.

Bagnalls is a fifth-generation family business and has been a member of FBU for several years. The support given by Paul and his team is invaluable, not only do we gain insights on the variety of family businesses that play such a vital part of our UK economy but we get so many occasions to network with each other to make us feel part of a true family community. Being members of such a positive organisation helps us keep in touch with all the latest on apprenticeships, the green agenda and family governance and much more.

Paul is an excellent communicator, and contributor to all things to do with family business. He has been a great help to both me and to us, as a family business at Arbikie Distillery through our membership of Family Business United.
