  I set up Bonner and Hindley in January 1996 with one of my best friends, Sheralyn Bonner. Our company specialises in marketing and communications for the tourism, leisure, museums, hotels, hospitality and business tourism, theatre and arts sector - areas in which we are passionate about and want to share that enthusiasm and knowledge with like minded colleagues and clients. We work with clients in a variety of ways, from one off projects, creating websites, handling digital campaigns, managing PR and marketing activity to writing strategies and business plans. For many clients we have worked along side them as their in-house marketing, comms team but based remotely. For all, it’s about building a long term relationship based on trust and a track record for delivery.Current clients include:Yorkshire Attractions Leeds Hotels and Venues AssociationEat Leeds - Leeds Restaurant WeekDSANottingham Castle TrustNottingham Hospitality Association Harrogate Hospitality & Tourism AssociationFeversham ArmsParagon HospitalityGreat Inns of BritainHuddersfield Contemporary Music FestivalHospitality SheffieldPonderosa ZooYorkshire Wildlife ParkYorkshire Wildlife FoundationInsurance EnduranceTo name just a few.....Our team of 14 is equally as passionate, sharing the same values and commitment to the sector and to our business....but most of all to each other. Our team is quite young (with the obvious exception of Sheralyn!) but this brings a new dynamic with digital and social media at the heart of everything we do for clients. Every day brings new challenges and a few laughs along the way....
