TILLIE SKLAIR
Operations Manager
I have always been interested in working in the not-for-profit sector. I came in to contact with The Funding Network (TFN) through family connections in 2007 and soon joined the Steering Committee for YTFN (the youth offshoot of The Funding Network, which recently won a prestigious Third Sector Excellence Award). I started helping out with TFN events, became TFN’s part-time Co-ordinator in 2008 and have been in the Operations Manager role since May 2009.
I graduated from Sussex University in July 2007 with a degree in International Relations and Gender Studies. I have done summer internships in several small charities, including Peace Direct and The Women’s Environmental Network, since I am particularly interested in conflict resolution and climate change. I also volunteer with The Choir With No Name, a project empowering homeless people through organised singing. They were funded at YTFN’s inaugural event in June, and have gone from strength to strength since receiving their grant.
