With over 20 years of experience in the orthotic and prosthetic industry for both the private and public sector, Mike started as an orthopaedic technician with the NHS. An opportunity to move into prosthetics is where he found his love and passion for silicone prosthetics. In 2016, Mike took a complete leap of faith and founded The Silicone Centre with his wife and business partner Sarah.
Following a long career in the corporate world, working for several UK leading supermarkets and brand leaders within the grocery sector, Sarah wanted to embark on a new challenge and realise a lifelong dream of being a business owner. With her husband Mike's technical expertise and Sarah's commercial background, the start of a successful business partnership was born.
