It's a pleasure to welcome Sarah Jane Thomson to my SME Walkabout with BOOST&Co.

Sarah Jane is one of the UK's foremost female entrepreneurs with a long and successful track record in building multi-national businesses from the UK.

She's founded, floated and acquired firms, winning multiple business awards. She was the youngest female CEO in the City of London during the 1990s.

On a personal note, I've known Sarah Jane for six years as I invited her onto my first night on a then brand new station, talkRADIO where we discussed her business passion, First News.

First News is a children's only newspaper for 7 to 14 year olds with a staggering two-million readers. It doesn't just distill complicated news stories for the younger generation, but also campaigns for their demands and needs.

First News joined a campaign to abolish the abuse of Child Soldiers and was presented to the G7 Summit.

Sarah Jane exudes energy and inspiration and if you're an SME entrepreneur who's despaired a bit during the pandemic, listen to this episode of #JonnyWalks for some valuable and timely encouragement. Everyone goes through challenges.
