Profile

I have over 30 years experience working in the voluntary sector. I have provided support and care to children, young people, and people with learning disabilities, mental health issues and physical disabilities. I have managed and led organisations working in the adult care and homeless sectors.

I also have a long history of volunteering. I am currently a Director of Wicked World Tours, a very small charity which assists disabled people to travel. I am also a Director of STAND International, a charity which enables Scottish people who have experienced homelessness to volunteer with organisations in Eastern Europe. I am a member of the Scottish Community Foundation Board and Grant Committee.

Information About Current Role

As Director of EVOC I work to influence and shape policy and strategy development and to represent the views of the sector. I think my job is about making connections, showcasing best practice and working together honestly with the voluntary and statutory sector to improve the lives of everyone who lives in Edinburgh
