Forty-five minutes on a train out of London’s King Cross and we’re in Peterborough, the home of skincare and aromatherapy brand, Eve Taylor.
As we pass through the barriers we are greeted by Eve Taylor herself, the woman, founder and institution behind her internationally recognised brand. Eve can be no taller than five foot and she is the sprightliest 81 year old you may ever meet. She leads us to her car, I’m ready to pick out a mini or a vintage set of wheels, but instead were ushered into her Suzuki 4×4 and she chauffeurs us to the Eve Taylor factory and education training centre.
