Georgina is a pharmacist and the creative behind AfroTouch Design, an Afrocentric brand producing diverse hand-finished greeting cards and gift items based on African Print fabrics. AfroTouch Design was founded four years ago whilst she was on maternity leave. With a baby on one side and a laptop on the other, she was unable to find a greetings card for a friend that represented African culture, disappointed and driven to fill that gap in the market, she used some fabric, a piece of card and created her own, and Afrotouch was born.
Her products are now stocked in independent retail stores across the UK. More recently she became the first female Black-owned greeting card publisher to be stocked by Waterstones bookshop. She hopes to share her story with women juggling a career, growing a business whilst raising kids and inspire them to follow their own passions.
