| Introduction | I was educated at Douai Abbey, a community of monks of the English Benedictine Congregation, near Reading. I then went on to the Berkshire College of Agriculture and Cranfield University. I then spent about eight years working in marketing and business development. In 1993 I went out to the independent kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific with VSO. The overseas project led me to work in 32 countries around the world from Africa, the Far East, Europe, the former Soviet Union, USA and the South Pacific. I am passionate about professionalism within the voluntary sector and believe that the leadership within the sector is key to this change. I am active within the sector and amongst other things am one of the founders of the Small Charities Coalition. Through the Coalition we aim to seek out the problems small charities face and find the best solution via innovation, inspiration and leadership. I am a fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing, a member of various fundraising institutes, the IoD, and a governor and trustee of different education and voluntary organisations. |
