He’s also the proud father of four beautiful children; Kayleigh, Romeo, Mason and his little Angel Teisha.
Shell Walker
Shell possesses over twenty years’ experience in the marketing industry, ten of these having been spent in the heavy transport sector, working for one of the UK’s largest hauliers, overseas operators and the Heavy Transport Association.
Over the years Shell has held marketing and PR roles across the leisure, retail, transport and publishing industries. Across these varied roles, Shell has undertaken all media buying, brand management, PR, budget management and social media strategies.
