The Crown and Pipes was the second business as a limited company adding to our business portfolio.We as a family took an ageing, under performing public house within a growing village with no passing trade, into a thriving business.We did this by realising we had to rely on the support of the village, so my business approach changed and I adapted to this challenge.We organised various pub teams to get us through the quiet week days and football teams and a golfing society gave us stability at the weekends.My responsibilities here, was to be hands on with the customers, offering a warm welcoming environment, cellar management, maintenance, and interacting with the village and sponsoring many events and local causes.In 2008 we employed a manager to look after the day to day running of the business, freeing up more time to research and invest in another business opportunities, we expanded once again and Purchased The Swan in September 2008.

I pushed my boundaries further and became ambitious and hungry I opened another Indian Restaurant at the pub.In June 2017 I sold The Swan to find a new career and a new challenge, as I achieved the goals set.
