About Sara

Sara first joined the BID Board nearly 10 years ago, volunteering her time to help steer and shape Brackmills, to support logistics as well as other businesses on the estate. When she first joined the board Sara was the only female director and Sara was instrumental in changing this so there is now a truly diverse board representing the estate.

Sara won Northamptonshire Logistics Person of the Year at Northamptonshire Logistics Awards 2022.

About the BID

With support from the board and team, Sara leads on an array of initiatives including:

Crime reduction – the recruitment of a dedicated PCSO and a security firm to cover key dates such as bank holidays. An investment in state-of-the-art CCTV and ANPR cameras. Crime is now at an all-time low.

Traffic and travel – Logistics businesses have expressed frustration with road humps, congestion and more. Sara has secured match funding to fund extensive infrastructure improvements.

Business support events – training and support to help businesses grow

Charity events, as chosen by businesses – using the estate and our logistics businesses to leverage more support and make an impact locally. Sara continues to support Northampton Hope Centre by joining their annual ‘Big Sleep Out’ event, to raise money to help put an end to homelessness. Sara is also committed to supporting Ukraine, where she joined a convoy to deliver food and supplies to Polish refugee camps on the border of Ukraine.

Sara also works tirelessly to curate support from influential individuals and organisations – local MPs, charities, funders, and property investors – to raise the profile of the estate, enable logistics businesses to work with and support each other, to encourage new logistics to move on to/ expand within the estate.
