A joyous wedding day of family and friends for the lovely Sarah and Jack. I was honoured to help! “We hired Emma Newman for her initial advice and on-the-day wedding planning packages, and she was our best investment. We honestly couldn’t imagine our day without her. It was stress-free and fun, with everything flowing smoothly thanks to Emma. We didn’t have to worry about a thing! She made every guest feel like a VIP, and her attention to detail was incredible. She’s truly a treasure, and we’re so grateful to have had her as part of our day. We can’t recommend her enough!”

A lovely way to spend a cold winter Friday updating my website and looking back on some wonderful clients. This reference from Celia Barker the Chair of the Champion Foundation Trust along with a photo of .mate.georgiakate at our successful Golf Day in 2024. A special day and organisation.

“Emma was the inaugural Philanthropy and Development Manager for The Champion Foundation Trust.

Emma, during her years with us, showed extraordinary energy, efficiency, enthusiasm and passion for her job. She is results driven and strives for excellence in everything she does, and she has shown a strong commitment to our charity’s mission.

Emma joined us with an almost legendary reputation as a superb Events organiser which she more than lived up to. Her ability to quickly form strong relationships with our donors and the Foundation trustees was invaluable in giving the Trust a greater presence and enabling us to hold many more events than previously. She makes and meets deadlines, and events run efficiently and to time. She performed this role in a part-time capacity which worked very well, as the work intensity, necessarily fluctuated from month to month. Emma is an intelligent and motivated person, showing warmth, empathy and genuine interest in others. She has shown a high standard of professionalism, which has earned her trust from donors, colleagues and trustees of the Foundation, who have very much enjoyed working with her.”
