Not one, but two Worthing Women Named Among UK’s Top 100 Most Inspiring Female Entrepreneurs

Kelly O’Haire, Director of Constructive Marketing, and Rachael Dines, Director of Shake It Up Creative, have been named in the f:Entrepreneur iAlso 100 for 2026. The prestigious campaign, run by Small Business Britain, celebrates 100 incredible female entrepreneurs from across the UK who are driving growth and making a positive impact in their communities, while running successful businesses.

With over 50 years of specialist marketing experience between them, both women contribute significantly to the Worthing & Adur Chamber of Commerce and have been driving forces in helping hundreds of businesses scale and improve their digital presence. Kelly has a degree in Public Relations and runs Constructive Marketing, which specialises in the building and construction sectors while Rachael is a Chartered Marketer and runs Shake it Up Creative, which specialises in small businesses and non-profits.

Their inclusion in the iAlso 100 highlights their impact not just as business founders but as multi-achieving leaders who balance expert marketing delivery with other roles. Kelly is the Chair of Trustees for Sight Support Worthing, the Chair of Worthing Business Circle and has provided many voluntary hours of business mentoring to others.  In the same vein, Rachael is Chair of the English Martyrs Primary School registered charity, sits on the West Sussex Economic Growth Board and is a voluntary Expert in Residence for Business & IP Centre Sussex and Community Works.

“It is brilliant to feature Rachael and Kelly in this year’s #IAlso100 campaign. All of the female entrepreneurs in this year’s line-up are inspirational and remarkable role models,” said Michelle Ovens CBE, CEO and Founder of Small Business Britain.

“Their creativity, leadership, and community impact show exactly why supporting female founders is so important, not only for the UK’s economic growth but for the positive difference they make to wider society.”

“I am incredibly honoured to be recognised alongside such a dynamic group of women,” said Kelly, Founder and Director of Constructive Marketing.

As iAlso 100 members, the women will have access to exclusive events, opportunities to speak on national panels, and a platform to contribute to policy discussions impacting female business owners.

“I can’t wait to expand my network with, and learn from, brilliant, high-achieving women from across the country”, said Rachael, Founder and Director of Shake It Up Creative.
