About Us

Your vision; our expertise

Collective Minds began in 2006 as a natural development of Stones Events, a well-established catering company in Leicestershire that has been running since 2002. With its impeccable reputation for service and an ever-increasing client base, the business was expanded to offer clients the whole events package and, in 2008, Collective Minds announced the opening of its London office, followed shortly by the launch of the new website in May 2009.

Let’s put our heads together

Our dedicated and highly experienced team provide all aspects of pre, on-site and post event management – from design, concept and theme ideas to food and drink styling – offering clients a customized service and working closely with them in order to coordinate every aspect of the event. We want our clients to know that whatever they need to create the perfect experience, no matter how much or how little, we are here to provide it.

People

Tom Goodwin

Managing Director

As a small child, Tom was never keen on trying new foods. His family soon changed that, and after going to catering college, he flew out to Australia to work as a travelling chef. It was here that he developed his passion for fresh, modern cuisine and, at the tender age of 20,Tom opened his first restaurant.

Now, Tom has over 10 years experience in the events industry after selling his restaurants to focus on events management. He is a strong believer in forging lasting relationships, both personal and professional. Although a self-confessed workaholic, his family manage to keep his feet firmly on the ground.

“Collective Minds says it all – it’s about bringing your thoughts and our creative expertise together to give you an event that takes you beyond your greatest expectations”.
