Getting to know Kate... Q: Where is your happy place? A: The kitchen. I love to cook, food is my love language. Whether it be providing a meal for family, entertaining friends or batch cooking for the week ahead it de-stresses me and brings me joy ☺️ #hradvice #hrsupport #humanresources #happyplace #northantsbusiness Kate Coulson Caroline McDonald

Getting to know Caroline... Q: What is something you’d love to do that you haven’t yet? A: Travel with my family more. I had a fear of flying until last year when I finally got on a plane with my family to Crete and I loved it! I’d love to do a road trip in America and one of my biggest wishes is to go to Lapland or the Northern Lights (but out of season so it’s not heaving with people!). #qanda #hrexpert #humanresources #hradvice #northampton Caroline McDonald Kate Coulson
