  • Apr 2015 - Mar 2019

  Working for Solar for Schools, was both challenging and rewarding. As Communications Manager I was building the relationships with schools to get every school having FREE solar panels. The opportunity for schools is now and many are taking it. Saving money every year for schools as well as reducing carbon emissions and creating a greener future! All this creates a good example for our children and enables them to learn about sustainable energy as well as contribute to a cleaner world.
