Bio
Frank Lucas
Louise was a pleasure to work with during her 4 years at the RSPB. She was passionate and professional in equal measure and constantly looking for opportunities to promote our conservation work. Her judgements were invariably sound and she developed great working relationships with a wide range of contacts.

Louise is a pleasure to work with - and really gets things done. She worked on the RSPB's climate change campaign with me, in her role as communications officer for central England. Louise could always be relied upon to take initiative and apply creativity to promoting our campaign - and to get results! I'd recommend Louise for any work requiring initiative, good people skills and sharp communications.
