    For Families Week - talking to Karen Gunn
    Apr 20 2025

    We had a very special guest to help us celebrate Families Week in 2025.

    Karen Gunn is one of the daughters of Ken and Marjorie Newton Wright, MacIntyre's founders.

    Here she shares some incredible stories of what she describes as the "chaos" of MacIntyre's early days, and how proud and moved she is to know her parents' vision continues.

    And we talk to Nicola Payne, MacIntyre's Families Manager, about what we're doing today.
