With such a vast range of promotional products and a large number of promotional events in the marketing calendar I’m looking forward to the new challenge and working with a great creative team,” she said.

In her spare time Rebecca helps to run a non-profit successful folk, roots and acoustic music club in South Derbyshire, called Village Folk.
