• lived experience of working in sustainability and retrofit

Head of Fundraising & Communications
Sheffield & Rotherham Wildlife Trust
Alison is a fundraising professional with experience in education and the conservation sector working for the last four years as Head of Fundraising & Communications at Sheffield & Rotherham Wildlife Trust.

They look after 15 local nature reserves, and champion access to natural green space. This month's theme is Messaging, and Alison will be talking about the Trust's strategy around inspiring people to take action for nature.

We're looking forward to hosting a diverse group of people at South Yorkshire Women in Sustainability, an inclusive space for peer-to-peer support and growth.

This event is supported by the South Yorkshire Retrofit Skills Task Force. The session will help inform the Task Force’s understanding of barriers, opportunities and support needs for women within the retrofit workforce, contributing to a more inclusive and resilient retrofit ecosystem.

The South Yorkshire retrofit and sustainability sector is growing yet women remain underrepresented across many roles, particularly within technical and leadership positions.

This breakfast event creates a space for women working across sustainability, retrofit and the built environment to:

• connect with peers

• share experiences and insights

• discuss skills development and career pathways

• explore how the sector can become more inclusive and accessible
