Testimonials
I am notoriously bad at asking for testimonials, but when a client offers one then I feel it only right to share it. Read for Good have been a brilliant charity to work with.
Jackie consistently delivers, having led the recruitment for several of our trustees. Her friendly professionalism, specialist experience and wealth of contacts enable her to represent our charity perfectly. Her understanding of Read for Good is invaluable – effectively presenting our approach, culture and impact as a small, national charity that punches above our weight to potential candidates. A focused approach is always enthusiastically and reliably delivered. Shine Charity Recruitment has, over time, advised us in the recruitment of our Chair, Treasurer and more recently, the exciting appointment of a young trustee, understanding the need for the all-important ‘fit’ and as a result finding candidates with the right skills, calibre and commitment.

2021 – New Website, New Office Assistant
New year, new website. This is probably the longest in-development website that poor Alistair at Gleave Media has had to put up with! In the end, I decided to go with the the pared-back, less is more approach, opting for more regular mini-blogs to keep you all updated rather than masses of text about everything I think you should know about.
Let’s hope that 2021 will be an improvement on last year. We are more resilient now, we know we can adapt quickly to changing circumstances and I am sure we will need to draw upon this as we move through the year. I am looking forward to working clients and candidates both old and new, event partners, associates and friends. In the meantime, here is a picture of my new office assistant.
