Joanne and Steve, ISpice, Hebden Bridge - February 2010
"Coming from teaching into starting our own small food business, my husband and I soon realised that we wanted to expand and we needed bigger premises. Still very new to the world of business as we are, Alan has been a friendly, knowledgeable, supportive and straight-forward mentor in our deliberations. Accessible by phone, email and personal visit, Alan has been a good listener, thorough in researching before advising, and good at explaining things to novices. He has helped and guided us through a process which would certainly have taken us a lot longer on our own, and possibly would have ended with us getting into a mess through our lack of experience. He has certainly saved us ££££s. Thank you Alan.
How we'd describe Alan in s few words – thorough, straight forward, good listener, clear explainer, friendly, knowledgeable."
