Laura has enjoyed a nearly 20 year career in Marketing and is now combining personal values of supporting young people with a love of telling stories in her work with Dukes Foundation.
We have brought together a diverse group of people with a wealth of experience in different fields to form an advisory group.
This group will offer an independent review of applications to ensure there is a fair approach to selecting our beneficiaries.
Each person brings unique insight into the decision-making process and together make a powerful sounding board for all matters concerning the Foundation.
Dukes Foundation believe in the power of youth to create a better world. The Youth Advisory Board (YAB) was established to ensure that a group of passionate and motivated students are given a meaningful voice, which is heard by our Board of Trustees and helps to influence the Foundation’s work.
The YAB is responsible for bringing a young person’s perspective into every area of our activities, to offer advice and guidance that will help the Foundation to grow and meet its commitments.
