Bio
Darren Jones MP
Holly organised the launch dinner for my charitable fund, the Henacre Trust, and pulled the whole thing off largely by herself. She not only organised a fantastic event which was at capacity but raised thousands of pounds for good causes too. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her. A remarkable project manager, fundraiser and
Ben Smith
It was with a heavy heart we had to let Holly go. Holly not only add joy and passion to any role she does, but also has the goods to back it up. Since Holly joined The 401 Foundation she has been one of the major driving forces behind the success of the charity, helping to develop operational strategy and implement key policies and fundraising initiatives. COVID-19 has impacted our charity massively and its for this reason only that we are unable to keep Holly, I honestly would jump at the chance of working with her again. Thanks Holly for everything you've done to support the 401 Foundation and me personally.

Jan 2021 - Present
The Bristol 500 is not a race, but a new way of giving locally. Members pay a small regular amount, which collectively turns into a larger monthly amount. Members are then able to nominate a cause close to their hearts in the BS postcode. Those nominations are shortlisted and members vote on who gets the money each month. Nominations roll over until they either receive the money or all withdrawn. It could be a group providing meals for vulnerable people, equipment for a local walking group or to support a family or individual starting again after suffering domestic abuse. If you know someone in need and it’s not for religious or political reasons, it will be considered. Inspired by Joe Sim's 500 Reasons, we want to find ways to connect and appreciate each other in our local communities. We also appreciate that times are hard right now - and every now and then, we all need a little help.

Jun 2014 - Nov 2019
Bristol Together Championships (BTC) is working in partnership with Bristol City Community Trust (BCCT) and will be an annual programme for primary schools (year 5) that culminates in a one-day tournament. The unique aspect of the programme is that a school can only enter by twinning with another school serving children from a very different ethnic, class, faith or geographical background and forming a joint team. We will invite schools with pupils representing the diverse communities (race, class and residential status) that make up the city of Bristol and its surrounding areas to include schools that are on the North Somerset and South Gloucester/ Bristol Borders.
