Hobbies & Interests

From leaving school Karen worked for a very large newspaper working and running the weekly entertainments page so had lots of opportunity to develop her organisation skills, but Karen’s first passion was entertaining, and from being young worked in the entertainment industry as a professional vocalist. Everything from being a Red coat at Butlins, to working for a large Holiday firm both here in the UK and the top hotels overseas, Karen entertained all nationalities.  Working on the Viking Radio Road shows here in the UK, Karen’s hands on approach with the general public matured and her desire to work with the general public grew stronger.

Once her two boys arrived, Karen decided it was perhaps time to stop globetrotting and put down some roots and that’s when Appleyards came in.  A role in which she could combine her good organisational skills yet still get to meet and work with the general public was ideal.

Karen also loves to Garden and dance, and in her spare time loves nothing more than pottering around her garden and milling around the odd car boot sale on a weekend.
