Having previously managed a young people’s grant scheme for the Princes Trust, in 2001 Jenny moved to local government, where she was responsible for a large-scale regeneration fund and delivery of a community-wide cohesion programme. Since 2009 she has worked as a consultant, including running an infrastructure organisation providing advice, support and training to children’s and young people’s groups in East Sussex.

Jenny’s practical experience is enhanced by her academic background. She has two Masters Degrees including a Masters in Public Administration from Warwick Business School.
