Karen Jones

It is a joy to be part of the Ladies First Networking Group, like-minded women who are inspirational in business and in life – and I’m proud to be asked to be an Ambassador.

Born in Sutton Coldfield, I’ve thrived in the Midlands, shaping my expertise in luxury lifestyle through editorial roles at Live 24 Seven and Touch Base magazines.

Beyond publishing, I’m deeply involved with The Giles’ Trust Brain Tumour Fund. My passion and dedication for the Trust was born out of a family tragedy. My wonderful niece, Sophie, was diagnosed with a brain tumour at the age of 15 and lost her battle to this cruel disease two years later. Despite her young age, she inspired so many people and in her memory, as a family, have gone on to raise tens of thousands of pounds for the Teenage Cancer Trust.

In my spare time, I love going on long walks in our beautiful countryside, going to the theatre and eating out with friends and family. I also enjoy travelling to France, Italy or Cape Town, which in my opinion is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
