As a member of senior management, Barb offers support to Lynn and the entirety of the LFO team, ensuring goals are met and the Film Office continues to be able to provide tailored support to productions as they adapt the region to fit their vision.  

Barb’s taste in films varies as much as her job role does! She has a real sweet spot in her heart for the classics (preferably in black and white) and anything that will make her laugh, especially on rainy days. To her, films are simply made for the big screen, and she enjoys the cinema as a chance to see both flicks and her friends, albeit if they are not being too noisy! Barb admires the strength and resilience of Louise (Susan Sarandon) from Thelma and Louise but also enjoys the adventurous Mister Benn. Her love for the arts goes beyond just film however, and she particularly praises Liverpool for its expansive arts and culture scene – something she takes real pride in playing a small part in and loves to see the LFO team’s hard work paying off across multiple projects around the region.
