As a MOLA trustee, I bring expertise in advising charities, not-for-profit organisations, and those who work with charities, on all manner of governance, constitutional and commercial matters, and have been recognised by Legal 500 for my work in this field. I also deliver training, both general and bespoke, to trustee boards and senior management teams, and regularly speak at conferences aimed at charity CEOs and trustees.
I have had a varied legal career, working at two international law firms, one magic circle law firm, and in-house at a FTSE 100 company. I am passionate about the arts, culture and heritage, and currently head that sector at my current firm.
My particular expertise includes: carrying out board effectiveness reviews, managing mergers and partnerships, reviewing, drafting and negotiating a wide range of commercial contracts and terms and conditions, providing data protection advice and support, and liaising with the various regulators such as the Charity Commission, Companies House, OSCR, and the ICO etc.
