I oversee all aspects of governance, partnerships, fundraising, service development, and charity management.
I have had a varied and rewarding career in health, care and service charities, mainly specialising in strategy, governance and fundraising. I joined Lifelites in 2022, collaborating with the team to establish our strategy for 2023-28. Outside of the day job, I have been a volunteer and trusteer at a number of different charities, including Samaritans and Together for Short Lives.
Childhood memory: I loved going to stay with my Grandpa. Every time the ice cream van swung by, my brother, sister and I would clamour for a Mr Whippy but my Grandpa would always say ‘ no way! They never get the ice-cream to the bottom of the cone, I’ve got something way better!’ Then he would proceed to cram some Cornish ice cream into cones he had bought, right to the bottom, which we found completely wondrous at the time!

I provide specialist training and support to our palliative care partners across Britain and Ireland, as well as researching new technology solutions.
