Keith advises customers on any technical issues relating to their orders and to fitting.

Keith also manages to get out and do a large part of the fitting himself, blinds, curtains, shutters, you name it, he does it!

Leonie

Director

Leonie is the buyer for Milners and has set times a year where she is out meeting company representatives and suppliers to discuss and view new stock, make purchases and discuss delivery dates. Leonie monitors and updates all records of stock, codes, costs, sales results and generally has her head buried in a pile of paperwork or getting cross eyed with the computer! Leonie, Rachael and Alice often have their heads down planning promotions and events. Leonie has a soft spot for cats, just take a look at Milners Facebook page!

Emma has a background of over 20 years of customer service, 3D design, working within Sustainability & the Community, Interiors, Visual Merchandising & Interior Design, retail & Merchandising, Marketing & education. I love the fact that I can use these experiences within Milner's, along with my people skills and creativity. I predominantly look to developing the business & support our Interiors Department. When I'm not working- being a mum and enjoying time with my family & friends, studying, camping, travelling, laughing, baking, eating, shopping, drinking wine, gardening, talking, sleeping, reading, exploring the great outdoors & being creative generally fill my time!!

Lucille

Lucille comes into the shop twice a week and organises all accounts, invoices, payments in and out and most importantly our wages! Lucille has a really quick eye for numbers and detail! She brightens up our day when she pops in and when she’s not here she is looking after her 2 lovely boys.

Sharon

Seamstress extraordinaire!

Sharon has been seamstress to Milners for some time now and we’d be lost without her. She is one very talented lady! Making up made to measure curtains and roman blinds for our customers, she is dedicated to her work and very much a perfectionist in everything she produces. If you’re looking for great additions to add to your home, you won’t get a better service than from Sharon. Somehow, Sharon also manages to fit in carrying out alterations for Milners customers too!

Andrew

We keep Andrew busy with travelling around Wensleydale carrying out fittings. He can turn his hand to fitting any type of blind, poles and curtains! A keen photographer, Andrew is often responsible for a few of our mugshots and takes some incredible photographs from around the Dales, some of his work can be seen in local galleries.

Brian

Brian is responsible for fitting carpets and flooring on our behalf. He has an excellent reputation for his commitments to customers and will go above and beyond the call of duty to help and make sure the fitting process runs as smoothly as possible. There’s never a dull moment when Brian is about, he is a laugh a minute!

Teddy

General Dogsbody!

Teddy is our newest (and cutest) member of staff. Teddy is Keith and Leonie’s new family pet and is a Spaniel/Labrador cross. He is already proving to be an asset to the team, accompanying Keith on fitting jobs and even trying to take the driver’s seat in the Milners van! In his spare time Teddy enjoys swimming, walks with his mates - Maloney, Bodie and Mac as well as chasing tennis balls. Teddy is always getting into mischief at home by chasing the cats, stealing shoes, the remote control and destroying the garden (much to Leonie's annoyance....grrrr).
