Local Entrepreneur, Lorna Knapman invited to Reception at No. 10
The Community Heroes reception was held last night to recognise those people who make a real difference in improving the local community. Kerry invited both Lorna and her business mentor from the Princes Trust, Erica Thomas.
With help from the Prince’s Trust, Lorna set up the Love Food Festival. After having won a Prince’s Trust Success Award she is now looking to set up Bristol Young Entrepreneurs Network to support other trust-supported businesses in the city.
