About Melanie Paris

I am a freelance fundraiser, trainer, development and marketing consultant working in the arts, heritage and not-for-profit sectors for over 30 years. With a background in journalism, I have used my inquiring, writing, research and interview skills to build a career in marketing and fundraising.I work with small to medium sized organisations and I'm passionate about empowering people, sharing skills and being creative. I’m skilled at working alongside organisations to develop manageable strategies and supporting and encouraging individuals/teams to deliver them with confidence. In this post Covid competitive world, I have the ability to see opportunities for organisations to explore and help them move forward, whilst paying careful attention to marketing and how to get the best out of small budgets. I am also co-owner of York Stay Holidays, who have two stylish one-bed holiday lets apartments in central York. www.yorkstay.co.uk Specialties: Strategic and Organisational Development, Fundraising, Training, Marketing Mentoring
