Introducing Jonathan Nowill, Head of Design at IPU Group...

Jonathan has embraced the spirt of the blog and created a brilliant list to describe his interests...

1) I live on the top of a windy hill
2) I have a range of eclectic interests, all of which involve making things from silver boxes to cars from steam engines to cast bronze fruit
3) I ride horses
4) I enjoy cooking especially if there is a bottle of wine on the go too!
5) I like the smell of Castrol R

There is simply nothing more to say.

Introducing Rachael...

I have been asked to put together a mini bio for you all, I’m sorry if it doesn’t make for thrilling reading...

I have recently achieved a Ba(Hons) Degree in English Literature and Language.
Previously and most recently I have been working in the jewellery industry at a small family company called Acotis. There I gained a little experience in writing press releases and events organisation.

Outside of work, I am a little OCD when it comes to fitness, so you will find me in the gym or the swimming pool. Other than that, I am a little addicted to literature and any spare time I have I try to spend reading...
