We’re delighted to welcome new Head of Fundraising and proud Coventarian Lisa Harrison – Byrne to Zoe’s Place Coventry.

Having worked for many different charities from victim support to sight loss, Lisa decided to take the plunge and pursue her passion for helping children after a change in her own personal circumstances last year. She said, ‘Its children that are my real passion along with the families that support them. I think it’s because sometimes you just need somebody and that’s what makes the work of Zoe’s Place so important. I’ve always avoided working with children because of coming to know sad stories. What I know now from being at Zoe’s Place, is every day here is jam-packed full of fun.’

When she’s not working, Lisa loves to spend time with her Doberman, Kiara or being outside in her beloved garden.
