The biographies of ALL Wessex Committee members are presented below:

BETH PERRY

Chairman

Beth has been a landlord for over 15 years, working across both HMO student accommodation and residential property. Over that time, she’s seen the sector evolve significantly, and had the opportunity to experience it from multiple angles—both as an investor and as an operator.

Beth is also the owner of a letting and estate agency with branches in Bath and Bristol, currently managing around 700 properties. That day-to-day involvement keeps Beth closely connected to the realities landlords are facing—whether that’s regulation, tenant expectations, or the practical challenges of running a portfolio.
