At the AM100 Dinner on Monday night in Birmingham we paid tribute to Sue Brownson OBE, managing director of the Blue Bell Group.

She become the first woman to be inducted into the AM Hall of Fame in recognition of more than 30 years of outstanding dedication to the motor industry.

She is a former president of automotive charity Ben, is a member of the Automotive Fellowship, an Automotive Skills board member and a former president of the National Franchised Dealer Association.

But, as Ms Brownson explains here, she has much more to give to the motortrade.
