She's one of Belfast's best known solicitors. From conducting Northern Ireland's longest running civil case to being passionate about the Cathedral Quarter where her practice, Edwards & Co is based, Dorcas is a one woman machine. She's also a busy mum, mentor (to me amongst many other young women!) and a great supporter of female entrepreneurs in the city. We explore her motivation for a life in law and why she's now passionate about finding a 'better way' through mediation.
She hosts Northern Ireland’s biggest commercial breakfast show on Cool FM. In addition to be a stylist, fashionista and influencer, Rebecca takes time to be the best daughter and friend she can be. Learn more about her road into radio, why she loves fashion so much and her plans for the future with Pete and Paulo.
