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.

Family businesses are the backbone of the UK economy. It is important that their stories are told and championed as their impact is often understated. That is where FBU come in! FBU is the voice of family businesses, creating a diverse network to share knowledge and stories, and to help amplify the reach of the amazing family businesses we have across this country.

“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.”

Paul is a highly effective champion of family businesses, with a wide knowledge and network. He understands both the micro issue and macro policy agenda which policy makers need to face as it affects such a crucial section of every economy.
