Hereford, England, United Kingdom
A passionate environmental campaigner project manager and speaker who has worked on marine litter at the Marine Conservation Society since 2007. Alongside numerous targeted campaigns, including wet-wipes, plastic bags and straws, I coordinated the charity’s Beachwatch campaign - the UK’s largest beach clean-up and litter survey. In 2011, I became the organisations first Pollution Campaigns Officer, focusing on changing public behaviour towards littering and single-use plastic and instigated the Marine Litter Action Network (MLAN) to bring together people and organisations from different sectors to holistically tackle the issue of marine litter through collaboration and innovation. In 2017 I became the charity’s Senior Clean Seas Advocate, with a focus on the reduction of single use plastic within business and industry and thoroughly enjoy inspiring others to realise their potential and how we can all make positive changes. And am now looking for work
