LCM Family is a multi-family office which helps individuals and families manage their financial, legal, philanthropic and business affairs. Our clients benefit from our in-house investment, legal, tax, pensions, family business, property, charity and financial planning expertise. With a breadth of senior professionals, we work as a team to provide the best overall advice for every client. We are also very happy to work closely with our clients’ existing professional advisors to join up different areas of financial planning and investments.I am a Senior Philanthropy Advisor with more than 20 years' experience within wealth management, family offices and the charity sector. Consequently, I have a unique 360-degree view and the ability to bridge the private philanthropic community to the not for profit sector. Alongside my executive responsibilities, I am also a seasoned advisor and have served as a board member for a range of organisations, and I have demonstrable success as a fundraiser and grants advisor in very high-profile situations.In 2017 I co-founded The Philanthropy Network to raise awareness and understanding of the sector within the UHNWI community and have reached a membership of over 30 firms and many individuals as members. As an executive at a senior level, I am passionate about organisational development and have made a major contribution to cultural change in many of the organisations I have worked for.Much of my earlier career was spent in charity, where I worked across grant giving from the distribution of lottery money to private city philanthropists and much in between.One of my strenghts is that I build and retain strong, collaborative relationships with a wide range on UHNWI, governmental, corporate and charity stakeholders. My network is extensive and I continually add to my breadth of knowledge of the sector's legislative, financial and operational constraints to be the best advisor possible.I am always open to discussing collaborative opportunities and engaging with colleagues with similar interests. Philanthropy advisors are a rare breed! Please feel free to message me via LinkedIn.
