Paul has been instrumental in driving forward the profile of family businesses in the UK, working in a number of different roles with partners across the UK and internationally. Paul and I worked together to build the profile of family businesses in Scotland and his expertise has been invaluable in the development of this.

“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.”
