Enabling individuals and organisations to COLLABORATE, so that they can TRANSFORM the world around them.
I help changemakers work together, think big, and take action. With 15 years of experience working in civil society, I combine participatory facilitation with strategic insight to help people collaborate with confidence and impact, while remaining grounded in their values. Read more.
How I can help
Collaboration
Enabling individuals to collaborate well across organisations.
Common challenges I work on include:
Uncertainty in structuring and leading meetings.
Low participation or engagement.
Need for extra capacity to support collaboration.
-
I work directly with individuals to build their facilitation and coalition convening skills.
Whether you’re new to leading sessions or want to strengthen your confidence, I provide practical support and strategies to help you navigate group dynamics and run meetings that deliver real outcomes.
I can also step in as an external facilitator, giving you extra capacity to keep collaborations moving forward.
Consensus building
Supporting groups to align, make decisions, and move forward together.
Common challenges I work on include:
Struggling to turn discussion into clear next steps and action.
Conflicting priorities or perspectives impede progress.
Unclear decision-making processes cause frustration or disengagement
-
I support groups—whether teams, coalitions, or cross-organisational partnerships—to align, make decisions, and move forward with confidence.
Through facilitation, coordination, and clear processes, I help groups surface different perspectives, work through disagreements, and reach decisions that everyone can stand behind.
The result is stronger ownership, clearer direction, and action that lasts.
Advocacy support
Helping organisations strengthen their skills, strategy and confidence.
Common challenges I work on include:
Limited internal capacity or confidence to deliver advocacy.
Efforts feel fragmented, inconsistent, or reactive.
Teams struggle to translate strategy into clear, coordinated action.
-
I work with organisations to strengthen advocacy skills, sharpen strategy, and provide extra capacity where needed.
From internal planning to external campaigns, I help teams operate more strategically and effectively, ensuring efforts are coordinated, impactful, and aligned with their values.
I also bring expertise in charity regulation in England and Wales, as well as electoral law relevant to campaigning.
Some of the organisations I’ve worked with
About me
I’m a facilitator and advocacy specialist who helps civil society organisations collaborate, influence, and push for change. Over the past 15 years I’ve worked with charities, membership bodies, and campaigning organisations across international development and social justice — from global advocacy on climate finance to UK campaigns on protest rights.
With a background in policy, advocacy, and convening, I’ve co-led a 350+ coalition, convened groups to defend the right to campaign, and supported organisations through difficult strategic challenges. I’m known for my warm, engaging style, inclusive approach, and strategic insight, alongside the ability to adapt when dynamics shift.
I’m a member of the International Association of Facilitators and committed to continuous learning and reflective practice. I draw on a range of approaches to help organisations reach the outcomes they want—while ensuring the process itself is inclusive, constructive, and meaningful.
