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.

I have known and worked with Paul over the last 15 years and commend him as a true champion in our field. He has worked tirelessly to bring resources, speakers and connections to family businesses in England and throughout the world. He is as generous as he is committed to our field and a true pleasure to work with.

Family Business United is an essential part of the family business eco-system in the UK. The team work tirelessly to promote the sector and to share stories, best practice and connections. Personally, I have been enormously grateful for Paul’s support, wise advice and enormously good natured approach. Many of the businesses that I work with have gained huge value from the wide range of sessions that Paul and the team run across the UK. The regional approach, right to the far flung reaches of the UK is very well received and has in many areas created a much needed sense of community and opened up communication channels at what is a very challenging time for any business but, particularly, family businesses.

“We’ve been proud members of Family Business United for many years at Dunsters Farm, ever since my brother and I officially joined the family firm. During a period of significant growth for our business, Paul and the FBU team have been right there alongside us, offering insight, support and practical guidance that has helped shape our journey."

"In a noisy commercial world it’s hard for family firms to stand out. FBU gives us a strong collective voice. It champions what matters most to family businesses in the UK, raises awareness of our sector, and brings together a community of like-minded firms who truly are the lifeblood of the economy. Through events, collaboration and shared learning, FBU creates a space where family businesses can grow stronger together."

"Paul is a passionate advocate for our sector, and FBU genuinely feels like a home for family firms. I’d recommend FBU to any family business wanting to feel part of something bigger - supported, connected and moving forward together.”
