Building connections and creating memorable experiences for the Canford community and beyond...As Development Officer at Canford, I’m all about fostering connections that make Old Canfordians, parents, and friends feel part of something special. Through engaging events and thoughtful outreach, my goal is to bring people together in ways that reflect the warm community Canford offers. I handle everything from alumni communications and social media to our regular giving program. From organising large gatherings, like our Centenary Proms in the Park Garden Party with over 2,000 attendees, to keeping our database running smoothly, I’m dedicated to turning ideas into experiences that matter.With a BA in Primary Education (QTS) and experience as a primary school teacher, I bring a background in education and recently became a Fourth Form (Year 10) Tutor. Previously, as a Logistics & Marketing Manager, I managed operations, planning, and staff training while running an international summer camp. This role sharpened my skills in project management and team leadership, giving me a solid foundation in organising events and building connections.Outside of work, I’m passionate about planning social gatherings and trips that bring people together, from local hikes to international adventures. I’m the one who gets plans out of the group chat and into real life!Let’s connect if you’re interested in building stronger communities or have ideas on bringing people together.
