As Volunteering and Engagement Manager I was the central support to ensure our volunteering and engagement activities across the country met best practice guidelines and worked in partnership with others in our communities to deliver better outcomes for all. This included leading our Football Friends programme (with which our involvement came to a planned end in 2018), where we worked with West Ham Foundation, QPR in the Community Trust and Brentford FC Community Sports Trust, and our grant-giving programme that offers financial help to older people living on a low income. I also oversaw our volunteering policies and procedures, being instrumental in their creation and development, and inputted to the development of a new charity strategy (see attached link).

Working in partnership across many projects with fellow charities, community groups, corporate partners and other organisations to, together, fight loneliness and isolation in older people and increase awareness of the issues faced by some older people.
