Have you ever wondered who’s behind those fun and imaginative post box toppers you see around the area? Well, we can let you into a little secret, but only part of it as we wouldn’t want to spoil the intrigue, it’s Post Box Happy (sorry that’s all we can tell you or that would give the game away!).
We met, Post Box Happy, in a quiet café, anonymously, to have a chat. Would you believe that they have only been popping up on our local post boxes since June 2021?
So how did it all start? First they are crocheted and not knitted, as we had mistakenly thought, taught by her mum to crochet while exp ..read more

Explain who and how you help?
I see myself as a thinking partner, providing a safe, confidential space where clients can reflect, focus, imagine, speak freely and get everything out into the open. By asking lots of questions, I help clients to get clarity – a clear vision of what what they want to achieve; perspective – an outside view to help put things in context; and support – to keep them on track as they take action.
How long have you been coaching?
Officially, 13 years, although I feel I have always worked to encourage people to find their own solutions and develop their potential.
Can y ..read more
