Trevor Palmer

Before starting my own business I trained as a bag designer, owned and ran an art gallery and studios in London, managed an umbrella factory, and worked as an assistant zoo keeper.  Now I work in many different areas, offering consultancy services and advice to various businesses and organisations in production, design, sales, marketing and distribution.

Look at the worst possible scenario and if you can handle that just get on with it and follow your instincts

My business interests developed further when I became a wheelchair user as I designed, produced and sold products for disabled people.  I set up one of the first e-commerce websites in Wales in the 1990s.

Being my own boss allows me to be as independent as I want; opportunities don’t keep a 9 – 5 timetable, and to succeed you have to take them however they turn up.  I set up and have been running ResponsABLE Assistance for ten years – being successful in business has enabled me to run and expand this not for profit organisation.
