E170 Punchline Talks! with Mark Hurrell, Boris Worrall, Jemima Gray and Dorian Kirk
By Mark Owen | 4th October 2024
Each Friday, Punchline-Gloucester.com editor Mark Owen is joined by leading Gloucestershire business figures from a range of backgrounds to review Fridays national & regional newspapers, discuss what is happening in their own business sector and in their own individual businesses.
Finally, they round off by picking the stories that have caught their eye in this week's Punchline-Gloucester.com.
The Business Breakfast Briefer show is sponsored by Hazlewoods Accountants and Business Advisors.
This week's panel of experts were:
Mark Hurrell - elected as High Sheriff of Gloucestershire in April this year. The former editor, presenter, producer, managing director of BBC Radio Gloucestershire has now retired from the Beeb. The role, which is largely ceremonial, has been in existence for over a thousand years and is a Crown appointment. We find out how it's all going.
Boris Worrall - CEO of Rooftop Housing Group - the company has a turnover of £50 million and 180 staff and is celebrating 50 years in business. Congratulations to them. We find out more about that and their Gloucestershire developments, which include the delivery of 300 houses on the derelict land behind St. Oswold's Tesco (which was the old Gloucester cattle market).
Jemima Gray - managing director and founder of Cotswold Fox Clothing. Jemima started the business as a university project three years ago and the county clothing brand has just gone from strength to strength. We find out the highs and the lows and the reality of running your own business.
Dorian Kirk - co-owner and founder of A Rule of Tum and the new owner of the renovated and invigorated Dr. Foster's Waterside Bar and Restaurant on Gloucester Docks - this is the group's seventh venture but the first in Gloucestershire.
