Company Manager

Co-founding CrawleyLGBT CIC has been such a rewarding journey. Now event managing the company, I am overjoyed by its community success. Crawley is a beautifully diverse town, but too often, the LGBT+ community is left without a voice. Creating safe spaces and a sense of belonging in the town where I grew up is a true passion of mine.

Finance Manager

Growing up when I was at school there was no support for the LGBT+ community, I knew so many people that needed support. I’m so pleased that I can support so many people in so many different ways.

I am relatively new to Sussex and work primarily from Crawley so I wanted to get involved in something local like this to get to support the community and ultimately try and use my skills, knowledge and network in a helpful way outside of work!I felt very privileged to be welcomed as a director and I am looking forward to playing my part.
