New JS Staff



Since the last blog we posted we had the likes of, Lisa, Leanne and Martha working for us. A lot has changed since then, their choice to leave though, not ours! They have all taken the next steps in their careers, Lisa has gone into admin in a school, Leanne has gone to a college working in admin and Martha is doing a university degree. All three of them started at Jonny’s Sister doing an apprenticeship in business and administration. 


(Clockwise- Alec, Shannon (ME!), Martha, Leanne, Lisa and Lara) 

Although they are all sadly missed at JS we have employed some newbies! It started with Becky, then Emma, Katie and Rhiannon. Here’s a little bit about them;

Becky is our chief despatch person! She is in charge of despatching all items on time and making sure they are sent out in a JS standard state, poor Becky as we have such high standards!

Emma is our new admin team member! She has office experience and is a whizz at speaking to customers on the phone, she deals with the order management making sure everything is with the correct suppliers and being despatched on time.

Katie is another new admin team member! She used to work at TESCO dealing with the charity events that happened in her local store. She is a very bubbly person and was chucked in the deep end when she joined about 6 weeks before Christmas! 

Rhiannon is a new studio member! She finished her design degree in summer just gone and is super talented with her work, although she doesn’t say so herself! At JS she works on the production of orders that are done in house and new product development. 

So there you have it, a quick introduction to our new JS members. There are still the three of us from the old team, Alec, Lara and Me, oh and don’t forget Jane, John and the dogs!

Jonny’s Sister have been getting ‘Pretty Muddy’!


A few weeks ago Leanne and Lisa took part in Cancer Research UK’s Pretty Muddy 5K run in Bristol. You may have heard of the standard Race for Life, but how about doing it up and down hills, over obstacles, and covered in mud!? Completing the run in just under an hour, they did us proud!


Hundreds of ladies dressed in pink ran, skipped and jumped around the course- some of us sadly weren’t up to the challenge! Here are some pictures of the eventful day; Leanne managed to whip out her camera just before they got caked in mud!



Did anybody else take part in Pretty Muddy this year? The JS team would definitely recommend it, getting down and dirty whilst raising money for charity- what’s a better way to spend your afternoon!?
