My hobbies are swimming, gardening, walking, reading and music.

At the Allstars weekend I’m looking forward to meeting fellow Allstars winners, finding out what they do and why they won. I’m also looking forward to being spoilt for a weekend, relaxing and enjoying the recognition of the work I do for GSK, meeting senior people in an informal environment and having fun.

I am bringing my husband Colin with me.

their guests, enjoy all the activities planned and soak up the luxury.

Hobbies include for myself – skiing, tennis and my garden! For Ally – skiing, and all things farming (especially showing Texel sheep!)

I started working for GSK in 1989 but worked on contract for a year in1988 before I was employed by GSK – so 24 years.

BEV HUGGINS

This will be my twenty first year working for the company. I’ve worked as both a representative and trainer/coach over that time and can’t believe how quickly the years have rolled by!

In my spare time, I like to travel. My most recent trip was to Sri Lanka which I loved due to the beautiful scenery and variety of the country including tea plantations, jungle, beach, temples and snake charmers!! When at home I like to keep fit attending regular Pilates classes, training once a week, playing tennis and walking. To counter act this, I enjoy eating good food and drinking

wine either ‘out and about’ at our local country pubs or at home where I’m happy to cook following the principles of ‘can you tell what it is yet?’ I also enjoy reading and belong to a Book Club which also involves drinking the odd glass of wine!

The Allstars weekend sounds fabulous and with Bruce I’m looking forward to enjoying the beautiful surroundings from both land and sea (we’re brave enough to have signed up for the Rib boat trip), eating and drinking fantastic food and meeting the other Allstars winners.

This is the first time that I have won Allstars and I’m really looking forward to a great weekend.

I would love to write a list of impressive hobbies but I am a telly addict.

I won Allstars last year and the fantastic experience in London inspired me to do all I could to win it again this year. I am bringing my partner Alban with me.

TOMMY SHAW

My hobbies – I coach my daughters football team, I am a regular at the gym but mainly spend most of my time trying to survive being the father of two teenage daughters.

At the Allstars weekend I’m looking forward to mainly the opportunity for my wife Judy and I to experience the luxurious lifestyle for a few days in the company of some

good friends as well as having the opportunity to make some new friends from the many colleagues who will be in attendance. Although really the RIB ride will be the highlight.

I have been at GSK for 20 years and not won Allstars before but I won the Top Performer ASM award at merger in 2001 (I think it was then?).

I have been working for GSK now for just over 5 years since the Oncology sales team was set up in Dec 2006. The last time I won Allstars was in 2008.

I am bringing my husband Matthew with me.

CLARE TERRY

13


My hobbies include rugby naturally, as being Welsh it seems to be something you get programmed to. I love reading all sorts of books and my holidays and travelling are also key to me. I exercise regularly doing Zumba three times a week to help figure and weight, allowing me to enjoy my favourite foods. I have many more pastimes which I squeeze in now and then.

I have been a Glaxo representative for 23 years and will hopefully get to 24 yrs on Sept 5. I have not won Allstars before so am really excited about the whole weekend. People who I know have won previously have all said how wonderful the whole weekend is and I just can’t wait for the experience.

JEANETTE THOMAS

My hobbies along with Rob’s are climbing mountains, biking, golf, skiing & sailing (Rob is ex-Navy) mainly outdoor stuff with our German Pointer called Captain Jack. I have been with GSK 5½ years and won Allstars for my HHBM role in 2008 and now for 2011.

The Allstars weekend has 3 Levels for me:• Partner • Recognition for partners as they play a fundamental

part in support & listening • GSK viewpoint

• To feel special & fruits of hard labour are all worth it• To inspire others this is a positive award & worth winning

We should all aspire to it, it’s not just about the prize but being a role model within current role, regionally & also nationally.

I have been asked by a number of colleagues what I did ‘extra’ that made the difference. I think there’s this piece being more curious to want to go the extra mile & develop yourself that can add extra dimension to teams you work with in current Customer focus, to be inspired by Leadership this is a positive place to work.

PersonalTo meet other colleagues/their partners and let your hair down & have fun/laugh, a lot of Champagne would be lovely always a bonus in my books & nice chilled wine with elegant tasty food please!
