“ Having worked with Ben on the successful £60m private equity raise, I saw first- hand his ability to craft a compelling proposition built on strong acquisition targets, a clear business plan, and an unrivalled understanding of the holiday park sector. Ben’s grasp of what matters to private equity investors and how best to position opportunities is exceptional. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to any business looking to raise capital or develop their strategic approach. "
