Kyra McDonnell

The year you joined the charity

August 2015.

A brief overview of your role – what are you responsible for?

Organising events, from the London Marathon and Three Peaks Challenge to the Parliamentary Reception or our staff quarterly briefings. Along with this, I reconcile financial reports for the many fundraising platforms used by our supporters, as well as providing administrative support across the organisation.

Your favourite part of your role

Going to the events and seeing how my hard work has had such a positive impact on the individuals taking part. No day is the same - I am constantly busy bust doing what I love!

Your biggest achievements

Achieving my degree - 2:1 BA Hons in Events Management. Also, completing a Tough Mudder for Meningitis Now, which involved heights and close spaces - things I am not a fan of!

A fun fact about yourself

A couple of years ago I reignited my love of netball and currently organise two teams for fun leagues across the county.
