Karen joined the Riverbank Team in September 2015 to work as Fundraising, PR & Marketing Manager. Karen has 9 years’ experience in social care and worked in journalism, marketing & PR before that.
As a single mother of 2 girls (aged 12 and almost 15) Riverbank’s work is close to her heart and she feels blessed to be part of the Riverbank family. Karen believes her role, “is a calling, not a job,” and is excited about telling the story of our vital work. “I’ve found isolation is one of the hardest parts of bringing up children on your own. I take great comfort in sharing the laughter and tears of parenthood with friends.” It is Karen’s prayer that every mum has that kind of friend on her side.
