SARAC Logo with Caroline

“The support was both strategic and practical… It’s rare to find external consultancy that truly understands the realities of leading a small sexual violence charity. Suki’s support was values-led, trauma-informed, and survivor-centred. It’s had a lasting impact-not just on my development as a leader, but on SARAC’s ability to navigate change and think more confidently about the future.”

– Caroline Fotheringham, Acting CEO, SARAC

“Coaching with Suki provided a safe, supportive space to reflect, grow, and consider my leadership. It helped me develop a stronger strategic mindset, stay grounded in ethical practice, and build on both my strengths and areas for growth. It’s been a truly empowering experience that I’d recommend to any charity leader.”

– Amy E Davies, CEO, Helping Hands Community Trust
