For 15 years a core team of three (Ed Carlisle, Jill Mann and Mike Love) worked on a diverse portfolio, always in partnership with other organisations. In 2017 it felt time to review our approach. We undertook some focused learning to see how we could adapt for the future. As a result of this we decided to explore a different way of working, integrating more people into the team which has expanded our network and initiatives. We began operating as a group of associates who pool our time and resources to work together on areas that matter to us where we can make a difference.
