Bringing a different perspective
Inspiring leaders of small organisations to create bigger impact
a purpose beyond profit
I started my career as a NHS Cardiac Nurse, where I learned the value of effective communication in creating positive change. Over the years, my path has led me through sales, marketing, and business development working across public, private, and third sector organisations. Now, with over 25 years of diverse experience, I'm here to support small charities in their important work.
understanding small charities
Having served on boards and worked with many small to medium organisations, I've seen firsthand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with a smaller working environment. I'm particularly drawn to the resilience and creativity of small charities, and keen to help them thrive.
what makes me different
a fresh perspective: I'll be upfront – my CV doesn't have a long list of senior charity roles. Instead, I bring a diverse career spanning multiple sectors. This outsider's perspective often allows me to see your challenges in a new light and propose innovative solutions. I believe this difference can be a real asset, but I understand it might not be for everyone – and that's okay.
cross-sector insights: My diverse background provides insight to help you see challenges from new angles, bringing ideas from various sectors to spark innovative thinking and simplify complex issues.
tailored approach: Every charity is unique, and I believe it is important to understand your specific context and needs, to inform the work we do together.
why I work with small charities
I'm continually inspired by the dedication and impact of small charity leaders. Your ability to make a real difference, often with limited resources, is remarkable. I'm here to help amplify that impact, providing support that allows you to keep your focus on doing what you do best!
let's talk
If you're curious about how we might work together, I'm always happy to have an initial conversation. It's
a chance for us to get to know each other, no strings attached. We can discuss your challenges, your
goals, and see if my experience might be helpful to you.
Feel free to reach out - I'm looking forward to learning about your charity and the important work you do.
