I thrive on working with charities embedded within communities who have strong, personal relationships with service users. I work best by having conversations with people, seeing change, getting feedback and making the third sector really work, focussing on strong delivery. I am keen to work with executive teams, trustees and service users advising on developing business strategy, realistic & achievable fundraising plans, building partnerships and submitting strong funding applications. I also want to help organisations plan for more effectively for the future, particularly through merger.
