Founder of the Sussex Food & Drink Network, an established network offering support to local producers, who has worked in the food sector her whole career. She set up and ran the food group, A Taste of Sussex, as part of the former Sussex Enterprise for almost 8 years and during this time came to recognise the need for networking amongst suppliers and buyers as well as between each other.
Natural Partnerships Community Interest Company (CIC) was formed in 2013 to benefit the local food and drink business community and the residents and visitors to Sussex seeking local food and drink, bringing together the complementary skills and experience of its two directors Hilary Knight and Paula Seager.
It is the culmination of many years of work in the local food and drink sector in Sussex by the directors and a determination to raise awareness and promote local producers and the products which are grown, reared, caught and produced in Sussex, as well as those who sell and serve these products including visitor experiences.
Natural Partnerships has extensive experience of delivering local food and drink projects and has the knowledge and skills to deliver on time and on budget.
We are highly organised and work collaboratively as we find that the numerous and varied skills required by complex projects are matched by our joint experience and skills including PR and media relations.
Through our projects we bring together the whole local food and farming community. We always work in partnership with others in the public, private and charity sectors and it is through these strong relationships that we are able to achieve great things.
