Bio
Alison Ling
In the few months that I have been lucky enough to have Ciara supporting me I have found her to be warm, friendly, knowledgeable, patient and a very good listener. Her support has been invaluable during what has been a very challenging time due to the every changing landscape as a result of Covid-19. She quickly grasps what's being discussed, patiently breaks things down and enables me to set actions, grow and develop in my role. I very much value her support.
Julian Marshall
Ciara was just fabulous to work with. For a start, she's a great listener and when pitching my project to her, not only immediately got it's scope, scale and possibilities, but saw well beyond what I had imagined - bringing both promise and realism to our proposition. I unhesitatingly recommend her talents to anyone in the business of wanting to raise funds for their projects.
