Sue France is a wife, a mother, a grandma and a networking queen in the North West; at 74 years young, this lady shows no signs of slowing down. As a natural creative, Sue's first career was as a childrenswear designer. Later, she was head of marketing and PR for a group of Yorkshire Hotels. Since 'retiring' in 2014 from running Forward Ladies Networking in Cheshire, Manchester and Merseyside, Sue’s diary is busier than ever. Sue runs a multitude of events which include her legendary Literary Lunch, now in its 11th year .
This year her events include a collaboration with Cheshire Life in May which sold out within an hour!
Sue has special powers - the ability to match businesses and introduce people to the most beneficial connections. She instinctively knows who will gel with who, and with the help of her little black book, she is passionate about matching the solo entrepreneurs in her group for their mutual benefit.
Sue is also part of the “ Phenomenal Woman” team which holds twice-yearly “confidence in public speaking workshops”. She knows first-hand how getting the opportunity to stand up and talk clearly and well about your business can be a game changer. Sue has helped hundreds of companies like yours over the years.
