Who I work with

I support charities, NGOs, coalitions and mission-driven teams...

...especially those working at the intersection of evidence, action and social change, including:

Research-informed programmes and partnerships
Community groups and place-based initiatives
Social enterprises, start-ups and coalitions

I bring 20+ years’ experience in strategic comms, stakeholder engagement and fundraising across charities, research organisations and international development.

I’ve led place-based campaigns, equity-focused research partnerships, and digital engagement strategies that connect people to purpose across sectors — from Oxfordshire farmland to East African networks.

Organisations I've worked with

I’ve worked in-house and as part of collaborative project teams — often leading communications on cross-sector programmes — across charities, research institutes, public bodies and networks working at the intersection of evidence, action and social change.
