Jenny served as Deputy Director of City Bridge Trust until her recent retirement in May 2021.
She continues to support our work in a freelance capacity, recently leading our work on Place-Based Giving Schemes as well as the Cornerstone Fund.
Jenny first joined the Trust in 1996, starting as a Grants Officer with responsibility for leading our monitoring and evaluation policy and practice. Since those early days, City Bridge Trust has expanded significantly. The organisation now employs more than 50 people, while providing funding and support to charitable causes across London.
Jenny says: “I feel immensely honoured to receive this award, both for myself and on behalf of the sector which I have been so proud to work for during all my working life. It’s truly a reflection of the hard work and dedication of so many people working against the odds in the public sector, and the past year has shown that it is never more needed.”
We are proud to follow in Jenny’s footsteps, working collaboratively to reduce inequality and grow thriving communities for a London that serves everyone, especially those experiencing disadvantage and marginalisation.
