How do you like Brentford?
It’s a nice place – I’ve been down here for many years, mainly by the waterside. Brentford still retains a lot of its original features, such as old working Boatyards and of course the Canal. It’s close enough to Central London, and yet still far away enough to relax.
What’s your favourite part?
The Waterside – The Canal.
How are you involved in the community?
We offer our services at a discount to local residents, and we like to help out in any way we can.
How do you see your future?
Growth, success, early retirement!
Would you move away and if so, why?
No. No need. Everything we need is here.
Three words describing Brentford?
Original, quirky, and real!
