Jessica is a performance and impact advisor for the autism and learning disabilities fund at Inspiring Scotland. She is passionate about the impact the voluntary sector can have in improving a persons life and offering the support they deserve.
Jessica comes from a legal background, having completed a degree in law and going on to work within the justice sector. She has since then spent time working within the third sector with a focus on mental health and the power of lived experience. This project further drove her passion to work within a sector that encourages change whilst always valuing inclusion.
Jessica support for the voluntary sector extends beyond her professional role as she has been a volunteer at the Moira Anderson Foundation for over two years. She has helped in organising fundraising events and raising awareness for the charity.

We would like to hear from third sector organisations delivering PIMH support and organisations and agencies who refer families to third sector PIMH services.
