Profiles

Carol Trewin is the Cornwall Manager of Taste of the West and is responsible for the Trade Development Programme which aims to raise the profile and use of Cornish food and drink locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.

She has worked in various aspects of food production for more than 20 years, including a long and distinguished career in agricultural and food journalism with the BBC and the award winning regional daily newspaper, The Western Morning News, before joining Cornwall Taste of the West.

Grace deals with the day to day running of the office, PR and assists with the Trade Development Programme.  This involves a wide variety of tasks from writing press releases and helping to organise shows and exhibitions such as the Food and Drink Expo at the NEC in Birmingham, and the Food and Farming Marquee at the Royal Cornwall Show.  

Grace is usually the first person to contact if you need further information about any of Cornwall Taste of the West's activities.  Grace graduated from the University of Plymouth's Seale Hayne agricultural faculty in 2000, and worked for the UK Agricultural Supply Trade Association (UKASTA) and an agri-food marketing and PR agency in Newbury before returning to Cornwall.
