Peta joined us as a part time interim CEO for two months. During such a short time, not only did she keep all of the very complex and different shaped balls in the air, she also strengthened our organisational practices and approaches, handing on to our new CEO an organisation brimming with confidence.

Approach

I use my experience as a journalist, charity chief exec and comms professional to find the right words for different outcomes, including

  • Communications and engagement strategies
  • Key messaging and branding
  • Proposals or cases to support charities engage with funders and other supporters
  • Press releases

I work as a consultant on Lloyds Bank Foundation’s Enhance Programme, supporting their grantee charities with comms expertise.

I also train, coach and mentor individuals to build their communications skills, with clients including Clore Social Foundation and CIFF
