I've got 20 years experience in marketing and business, and am currently working with a technology start-up called EVRYTHNG. The work that Harry's Rainbow do in providing bereavement support services resonated with me personally, as a father of three, and I hope that in my role as a trustee, I can draw on my professional experience to help the charity flourish and continue the amazing work they do in the local community. My past experience in volunteering included coaching my son's football team for several years, and participating in the London Marathon, 3 Peaks Challenge and a Half Iron Man to raise money for various charities.

After working for over 35 years I decided to take some time out and recharge my batteries. I wanted my next endeavour to make a difference and to put something back. My sister and I lost our Dad when we were 14 & 21 respectively. There was no support network available to us and I feel what Harrys Rainbow Trust is aiming to achieve is very much needed. Bereavement at any time is traumatic and having a support network in place or somewhere you can go to get advice is key. My background is in HR and I hope to use my HR skills and some previous charitable fund trustee experience to help sustain the charity and be a part of its growth in the future.

I have worked in an operations role for 10 years. Operations is a very versatile role which has given me great insight into all elements of how businesses run and what it takes to keep the company moving forward and growing. I also co-own a freelance marketing business, founded in 2016 which works with small businesses and start up’s. I am excited to be working with the Harrys Rainbow Trust team as this is an excellent charity. I have unfortunately seen a very close friend of mine lose her son and seeing the impact on the family unit was devastating. If this opportunity allows me to offer support to any bereaved families, I will be very humbled

I have worked in Human Resources for the last 6 years and historically within the funeral industry. These work experiences have exposed me to different avenues that can translate into helping the decisions made as a Trustee. I have recently moved to the area and I joined Harry's Rainbow in order to give back to charity and use my workplace expertise to grow the charity and to support the beneficiaries

Following an early career as a newspaper journalist, I moved into the health charity sector around 15 years ago. Since then I’ve held a number of senior roles in charity communications teams and more recently organisational development. I currently work for a national sight loss organisation based in Buckinghamshire. I’m passionate about the vital role charities play in connecting people with others who have had similar experiences, and providing high quality information and support. A mum of two, I feel honoured to join the Harry’s Rainbow team as a trustee and hope that my enthusiasm for the charity's fantastic work, combined with my professional skills and experience, will enable me to help make a difference for families who experience bereavement.

I am a Chartered Management Accountant with over 8 years of experience helping large organisations in various industries make better business decisions, improve profitability and cash flow. I’m currently running my own financial consulting business, helping start-ups and SMEs achieve profitable and sustainable growth. I am passionate about making a difference, solving problems, and helping people see their challenges as opportunities to grow. Over the past few years, I supported various charities through fundraising and volunteering and it’s always been a rewarding experience. I am excited and privileged to serve Harry’s Rainbow as a Trustee and be able to use my skills and experience to support its great mission.
