After a professional career in marketing and business development in both the public and private sectors, I have worked in the social sector for 20 years as a Consultant, Non-Executive Director, Trustee, and Chair. I support charities and social businesses to improve their sustainability and social impact through: improved governance; effective strategy development and implementation; strategic partnerships, including merger; and income diversification, including social investment. I have a particular interest and expertise in the hospice sector.
