After 18 years' senior level experience in pharmaceuticals - marketing, communications, commercial and strategic development, I transitioned to the charity sector in 2017.  Trustee for Friends of Moorfields Eye Hospital; Director of Business & Development for Hackney Foodbank for 3 and a half years; Now Fundraising & Partnerships Manager for First Love Foundation.  
- Our charity tackles poverty through wraparound support, emergency food and in-house advice, providing high quality ongoing support to enable people to reach a more sustainable life, reducing dependency on welfare benefits and helping people back into work.  We treat people with dignity and compassion, so that the revolving door of dependency is brought to a halt and life can begin to thrive.
