Professional
Abi joined Honey Barrett in 2002 as a client manager in the specialist medical department, having qualified in 1997. The development of her specialist knowledge and approach enabled her to play a key role in expanding the firm’s medical sector client base to such an extent, that she was appointed a Director of the firm in 2012, and in May 2020 Abi took the role of Managing Director of Honey Barrett.
Abi was appointed as Secretary of the Association of Independent Specialist Medical Accountants (AISMA) in June 2021 and was delighted to be elected as a Vice Chair of AISMA in May 2025. Abi is also Chair of the Bexhill Neighbourhood Board.
As well as specialising in the medical field, Abi has experience of wide-ranging businesses and currently acts for a number of clients with whom she works closely to help them get the most out of their businesses.
She was a previous winner of the East Sussex Women in Business ‘Business Mother of the Year’.

Abi’s teenage son and daughter keep her busy and she enjoys supporting her husband in his photography business. In April 2024 Abi was delighted to be appointed as Chair of Bexhill Town Board, where she is using her experience and passion to provide leadership and direction to the Board, to ensure the best outcomes for the businesses, residents and communities in Bexhill. As part of this work she is relishing the opportunity to encourage engagement and collaboration across all sectors promoting a real change in culture both locally, and potentially nationally. When time allows she joins her am-dram friends singing in charity concerts and keeps fit by walking to the office on a regular basis.
