I’m so pleased to have joined ROLDA UK in March 2026, having spent my career exclusively in the charity sector. I’m a logical and data-driven direct marketing specialist through and through. I’m passionate about delivering innovative and audience focussed fundraising campaigns that deliver real impact, and connect supporters to causes they care about. Having grown up with family dogs big and small, and having recently rescued Teggy the kitten who was found alone in a remote warehouse, living alongside animals has always brought me joy. To be able to raise funds that ensure animals are safe, cared for and loved, at an organisation that truly does everything possible to be there for them, is a privilege. In my spare time you’ll find me testing out new cake recipes, going for a run, trying to master embroidery or learning the Italian language.

I was born in Cumbria but have lived in Cheshire for the past 35 years, specifically Altrincham and then Lymm. I have 3 daughters and 1 grandson. I have worked in the charity sector for the majority of my career spanning over 23 years. In my spare time I enjoy taking Miguel on country walks, spending time with family and friends and watching Manchester City women's team play.

I have worked in animal welfare for the last 7 years and across multiple well known charities. I am a qualified Animal Training Instructor, who is proudly registered under the ABTC and have had the privilege of working with a range of wonderful dogs; in rescue, in overseas shelters and assistance dogs. I am hugely passionate about sharing my knowledge to help humans become the best advocates they can be for our canine companions. You'll find me facilitating our UK adoption and foster networks at ROLDA and proudly making our adopting and rehoming processes ethical and sustainable for our dogs, as well as hopefully bringing together some new families.

Hi, I'm Nic! I've always loved social media and the way it can bring people together. I love that it can be used to spread messages of hope and support.
I also LOVE animals. We can't say no to animals in need, so our home is full of love, with dogs, ferrets, rabbits and guinea pigs in various areas of the house.
I am so excited to work with ROLDA UK, using the power of social media to help save so many more animals.
I am a home-educating mum, so when I'm not on social media, I'm usually up to my elbows in some kind of project with my three kids.

Hi, I'm Sav, and I'm part of ROLDA's social media team!
With a background in Environmental Science, Zoology, and a passion for all things Marketing, I strongly believe in the power of marketing to drive meaningful change.
I've adored dogs for as long as I can remember, so working with ROLDA is truly a dream come true. It allows me to use my marketing skills to support a team dedicated to doing remarkable work for animals in need.
Having bounced around the world, I've recently settled in the English countryside with my two beloved rescue pups, Darwin and Luna, who made the journey with us all the way from South Africa!
When I'm not working or cuddling with my dogs, you'll find me pottering around in the kitchen and endlessly scouring Pinterest for new vegan recipes!

I am very excited to be joining the fundraising team for Rolda. With over 30 years experience within the charity sector, I hope I will be a great asset to the team. I love dogs and cannot bear the thought of these sensitive & emotion filled creatures being mistreated, starving & unloved. I like spending time with my Grandkids, walking with them and teaching them about nature. I do love going to a good boot sale to hunt for bargains. In between all of that I enjoy a motorbike ride out somewhere remote with my partner.
