"Nell supported the Community Council for Somerset with a very short notice piece of work which had extremely tough targets.  Before agreeing to do the work Nell assessed the brief and came back with suggestions and recommendations of how she could best support us.  I had confidence she understood what we needed.  Nell was extremely professional and delivered impressive results."

"Thank you so much for yesterday and for all your hard work for co-ordinating the day, most of which has been above the call of duty.  It was a huge success and a well attended afternoon, I have yet to read the feedback forms but interest is already good for the progression course."

CoVE Manager Tourism & Hospitality

"Thank you for all the hard work you put into organising the trip to Italy. I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned lots! I thought it was a really well balanced trip with a good variety of visits, it has certainly given us food for thought about how the food paths could work here, and... has made me more aware that I could (and will) use even more local products than I do currently. I also have to say... what a lovely group of people, it was a real pleasure to spend a few days with people I didn't know, exploring Italian food and culture."

"Somerset Food Links worked with Barrington Associates in 2007 as the Levels’ Best Tourism Officer.  Nell introduced and promoted the brand to hospitality providers throughout the Levels’ and Moors.  This was done through organizing a series of workshops which were well attended.  The outcome was some 50 Associate Members who subscribed to the Levels’ Best ethos.  Nell also actively supported the marketing of Levels’ Best events for the launch and used her media contacts to good effect.  Nell’s attention to detail was appreciated as was her ability to undertake this work with flair and commitment. We look forward to an opportunity of working with Barrington Associates in the future."
