The Suffolk Pod Show had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Cathy for a good chat over a very good cappuccino!


Cathy - a retail business owner and entrepreneur chatted about her life (past and present), her ambitions and passions - and how she has become one of Ipswich’s most successful businesswomen in her extremely busy and fulfilling life!  


Cathy owns Loveone - an independent interiors and gift shop based in St Peters Street in the heart of old Ipswich town. Now in its 18th year of trading, Cathy looks back to its inception and the influences and circumstances that led her to opening the doors to her dream business. Loveone is a truly wonderful shopping experience. Every wall and shelf is adorned with beautiful interior pieces, from scented candles and greeting cards to clothing accessories, pottery and glassware.
