Winkworth, said: "Tara represents a fresh approach to helping franchisees
manage compliance by combining training with a more aligned compliance team
consisting of industry, legal and financial professionals. The aim is to offer

whose success I and many at Winkworth, both as franchisees and franchisor,
have devoted our careers. For me it has been almost 20 years of close
involvement with the Company, so I am delighted with the opportunity to
further develop and grow the business."
