Make it British - The Book!Something really exciting that I wanted to tell you about, is that I am writing a book!
That’s part of the reason why I took a break from recording the podcast for a couple of months, as I wanted to focus on starting on the book.
The book will, of course, be about manufacturing products in the UK. And will include case studies on some of the very best UK manufacturers and British brands.
If you are interested in being one of the first to get hold of a copy of my book go to makeitbritish.co.uk/book to get more details :)
