Yet again for 2023, we’re bringing back our popular festive spotlight — featuring businesspeople from across the north. On each day of Advent, we’ll be quizzing a notable name with 10 quickfire questions, covering the past year and their plans for the festive season. And they’re only allowed one word answers…
