What is the businesses greatest achievement so far?
When I booked my first holiday from an offer I shared on Facebook and it wasn’t someone i knew or was local, it was amazing to reach someone else in another part of the country.
Tell us about yourself:
Where are you from?
I have lived in Ossett for 11 years now, but originally I was from Altofts.
How did you get into this business?
I have always worked in travel and I was coming to the end of my maternity leave with my 2nd child. My older child was starting full time school so I thought it was the perfect time to start my own business and with the support of Hays Travel, I was able to do that and carry on doing something I love and am very passionate about.

I love booking my customers their dream holiday and showcasing all the amazing holiday offers on my social media pages.
What do you do to unwind after work or on weekends?
When in not working I’m usually running around after my 2 very active boys so don’t have a lot of time to unwind, but then I do it’s usually with a glass of wine or 2 and a good film or series.
If you had one piece of advice for someone just starting out in business, what would it be?
To remember you have only just started and it takes time to build a business up.
