Episode Synopsis

We are over the moon to welcome today's guest, Polly Gibb OBE!  As director of WiRE (Women in Rural Enterprise) at Harper Adams University Polly has worked with female led rural micro-businesses for 20 years. WiRE developed a national network of volunteer-led local business groups which are particularly appropriate for female-led businesses in enabling both skills development and transformational support.  Previously she worked for environmental charities in the UK and abroad and now focuses on enterprise as a driver of positive environmental and social impact.  In 201 she was awarded an OBE for services to the rural economy and named one of the now King Charles top ten heroes of the countryside.
