“I
enjoy watching or playing most
sports, especially football
(follow the
Villa as passionately as ever)
and I still manage to play the
occasional game, although
swimming and cycling are much
kinder on the
creaking body.
I
enjoy a pint of proper beer,
walking with the dog and
working in the
garden to grow an ever greater
selection of vegetables and
fruit. I
look forward to lazy days on
the beach in a special part of
Cornwall;
expanding my limited culinary
range; making more use of my
camera;
exploring more of Africa and
travelling across Britain by
train
(particularly behind older
diesels).”

Gill Tomlinson –

Managing Director –
brings
to Morgans
her expertise in
collecting and interpreting
information. She has over 30
years

renowned for her interpretative
skills and her commercial and
strategic
insight that directly impacts on
decisions, adding to competitive
advantage.
Gill
is
responsible for client
liaison, project planning and
management from
scoping through to

“On a
personal level, my three
kids are almost fledged
and so more ‘me’ time
has become
available. My plan
is to go for long rambles
across our beautiful
countryside with young
Echo (golden retriever)
and
finally get the garden
sorted! To the future I’m
mentally planning my
own Gap Breaks, with
Africa (particularly
Namibia) and Australia
high
on the agenda”.

Julia Buckley –
Market
Research
Executive –
contributes
experience from a varied working
life in industry sectors as
diverse as
horticulture and mental health
nursing – once combining the two
in
horticultural therapy. This first-hand
knowledge of, and keen interest
in, different working
environments plus
her tenacious ability to reach
people, no matter how hard they
are to
access, makes her an invaluable
asset to Morgans and clients.
Julia is responsible
for
business development and
project management.
“I studied
Social Science and Human
Geography before moving into
market research.
As a personal interest I am
actively associated with the
local
producers market in
Wallingford as I’m passionate
about food and its
provenance. This helps
offset the fact I can’t grow
much
myself because I only have
window boxes in my town centre
flat.”
