I am delighted to have joined the Board of Trustees of Carr Gomm in 2024. I currently sit in the public affairs team at one of Scotland’s leading Universities, having previously worked in the office of a Member of Parliament covering a rural area with many islands. In both roles, I have been continually aware of the issues impacting social care provision, however, I have also heard time-and-time again about the amazing work that Carr Gomm do to provide person-centred support to those that need it most.
I hope to bring valuable insight to Carr Gomm on how to effectively engage with Government and Parliament, whilst also supporting the wider governance and strategy direction of the organisation.
I have previously volunteered in the third sector across independent food banks as well as at an organisation supporting newly arrived asylum seekers with day-to-day living. I am extremely excited to be part of a charity that makes a difference to so many lives.
Outwith work, I enjoy hiking, running, swimming and camping around Scotland whenever I can.
