About me / About business or organisation:

Cholesburys is reinventing a little bit of the British shoe industry. Recycling, up-cycling, finding vintage and employing some good old hand crafting with a bit of engineers thinking. Cholesburys is based in the Hempcrete studio that we help build. I whittle away at making and selling my ladies footwear in between looking after our children. I like to think I am working small and thinking big with the way I have designed what I do.

Career history / Company history:

I studied as an engineer and then moved into high street retail and supply of footwear. Most recently I was supplying ladies footwear to some of the best know UK and US retailers from a factory in India that I helped to build.
