Sharon is our STRIVE Project Coordinator and has worked on the project for just over 18 months. Sharon began her role as a part-time member of staff, recruited and trained all volunteers and built relevant networks.

STRIVE has since been re-commissioned, seeing us continue to work in Trafford, expand into Salford, with Sharon being promoted to full-time. Sharon has a passion for volunteer management and manages the project with a focus on empowering people to make their own choices and the concept of professional volunteering. STRIVE has won multiple awards and in October 2017, Sharon was voted Volunteer Manager of the Year at the first North West Charity Awards.
