Paul Barrett MBE is the Managing Director of Barretts Motor Group, a successful family-run business founded in 1902 in Canterbury, Kent. Alongside leading one of Kent’s most established automotive groups, Paul is a member of the Kent Ambassador network and has served as High Sheriff of Kent, reflecting his longstanding commitment to supporting local communities and charitable causes. In 2023, Paul was appointed as a Deputy Lieutenant of Kent, a prestigious honour recognising his service and contribution to the County.
Paul became a KSS Community Ambassador in 2023, having already been a dedicated supporter of our charity for many years. Barretts Motor Group played a pivotal role in our urgent Buy it For Life campaign in 2024, making a significant contribution toward our £1 million target to secure the purchase of our second helicopter.
Today, that helicopter proudly carries the Barretts Motor Group name as it flies across the region on lifesaving missions. Paul and his team continue to champion KSS, helping us deliver critical care and make a lifesaving difference to people across our communities, every single day.
