Glenn Coombs AKA 'The Boss' DIRECTOR/HEAD DESIGNER
As Director and Head Designer for the last 20 years, Glenn has full involvement in the day-to-day running of Shelleys, making all the big decisions and doing a little bit of everything.

He has to have a coffee at 9am, 10am and 11am, tea at 1pm and 3pm and then another coffee at 4pm to keep him going! We think he may be addicted to caffeine.

Glenn wishes for - more sleep re: 2 young kids and a baby!

A love for food, cycling and village life and his spinney chair from DFS!
