When I’m not out and about networking, I’m busy running my design business in the heart of Chichester, where I have been based since 2001. The company, Wilson Design Associates (WDA), produces creative design solutions in the corporate, marketing and promotional sectors for both national and local clients. Over the years we has designed for The National Gallery, Womens Institute, Serco, Rentokil Initial, Southern Rail, Chichester District Council, Chichester Cathedral and Kew Gardens. Major publishing companies, such as Dorling Kindersley, Conran Octopus and Walker Childrens Books, have also used our services.

I also run a print company called Chichester Print, providing great service, great quality and great prices - www.chichesterprint.co.uk

Since moving to Chichester I have been Chairman of the Chichester branch of the South Coast Design Forum, board member and guest speaker of the Chichester Education Business Partnership, judge and guest speaker for Young Enterprise and an active member and promoter of the Chichester Chamber of Commerce. I have been recognised for my contribution to the local business scene at the Chichester Observer Business Awards for three years running, winning Business Personality of the Year in 2009 and runner up in 2008 and 2010.

I am also well known for my networking activities; running the popular First Friday Network and a founder member of The Business Interchange network group.
