SCUNTHORPE'S Dragons' Den star, Sharon Wright is looking to get her business back on track when she moves back into her offices at the weekend.

The entrepreneur was hit by flooding earlier this month, leading to a potential loss of orders running into millions of pounds.

But after taking two weeks off following the disaster, she is now ready to go 'back to basics' and get started again.

Sharon said: "We are still not back in the office yet and we have had to come away from it for a couple of weeks until it gets sorted out.

"The insurers have been and my stuff is all insured so I am just waiting for the go ahead from the landlords.

"It has slowed me down but I believe everything happens for a reason.

"I have taken two weeks off but hopefully, I will be back in the office at the weekend.

"I think we just need to make the best of the situation and it is about positive thinking.

"It has slowed me down and made me look at things a bit more closely."

Sharon shot to fame when she appeared on television show Dragons' Den with her Magna Mole cable threading invention.

She impressed industry tycoons on the show, who all wanted to invest in her business, which subsequently drew interest in the product from around the world.

She said her two-week lay-off had allowed her to take stock of the business and come back with a new approach.

"It has been quite enjoyable but I am looking forward to getting stuck back into it," she said.

"I think it has made us think about the amount of industry we have had interest from around the world and it is about assessing those companies.

"It has given us the opportunity to hang back a bit.

"It is all right saying you can sell it but I know it has been difficult in the UK and it will be the same overseas."
