Twelve months ago I was a full time Mum who had an idea about a fashion forum for emerging designers. Through a friend I was introduced to Helen Sattler, who happened to be launching a product that she had developed for emerging designers at the same time. So together we dreamt up our fashion event - Launch My Label - A Fashion Forum.

Before having children I worked in the marketing sector and felt that I had totally forgotten those skills and was thinking about getting into teaching, while designing my own label. Through my work with Helen and the opportunities she made available to me through this event, I realised that all my skills where still there, just filed away.

I now have an amazing business development and marketing position with a great company, all because Helen took a chance on me and gave me the work to be able to refresh my skills. Honestly, if I hadn't done the work experience with Helen, I wouldn't have had the confidence to go for the job that I have today.

Helen is an amazing person to work with, who totally believes in you and helps you find the best in yourself. She is a wealth of knowledge on the fashion industry and all her products have the emerging designer in mind and being one myself, recommend them 100%. I have had so much fun over the last 12 months and an experience I won't forget. I would definitely recommend an intern-ship with Helen any day!
