Marie joined Blagrave in 2025 and is our Head of Communities and Partnerships, working to ensure that Blagrave’s work is led by the young people and communities we seek to serve, and that as much resource as possible is available for sustainable youth-led change.

Marie has a background in homelessness, community development and charity communications, holding roles at St Mungo’s and the Down’s Syndrome Association, and was Founder of The Choir with No Name, an organisation seeking to build joyful communities and destigmatise homelessness through the arts.

She is excited to learn from Blagrave’s inspirational partners and uplifted by the hope and dynamism that young people bring to the voluntary sector and wider society.
