Just setting up this thread for people on Exeweb to be able to ask me any questions ahead of the Trust elections.
A bit about me: I've been a City fan my entire life, having been taken to my first game at Northampton away in 1995 when I was just a 1 year-old. Despite living in Spain for most of my life, City have always been my team and I would always go with my dad to games when I was back in England.
I've been a Trust member for as long as I can remember, but the first time I got involved with the Trust was as part of my undergraduate degree final project, when I produced a marketing plan for the Supporters' Trust which I later presented to the board. A few years later I joined the Communications and Engagement working group, developing leaflets and posters at first and eventually becoming more involved with the relaunching of the newsletter and the 1,000th Goal project. My involvement in the past year has diminished a little as I moved to London to study my masters degree with a view to moving into the footballing industry but, having moved back to Devon, I now feel ready to become fully involved by standing for election to the Trust board.
My manifesto:
I am currently finishing up my Masters degree in International Sport Management at UCFB Wembley and the Escuela Universitaria Real Madrid Universidad Europea, adding a sporting specialisation to my undergraduate degree in Business Management.
My background prior to this was in e-commerce, both at Exeter City FC and at a charity. Since 2018 I have been an ambassador for Kick It Out as part of the ‘Next 25’ scholarship and have since engaged in communication roles at events and have performed ambassadorial duties at EFL games.
I have also been involved with the Trust for a number of years in a small capacity, aiding with the relaunching of the Trust newsletter, creating marketing materials and leading the 1,000th Goal project last season.
If I am elected to the Trust board, I will be seeking to engage the 18-25 year-old age group with the Trust, whose support will be crucial to the long-term sustainability of the Trust model. In light of the recent cases of Bury and Bolton, and a number of other clubs potentially ending up in similar situations, it is vital to ensure we continue to be sensibly and strategically run; and helping engage a younger audience on the importance of this is essential.
I will also be looking to drive the Trust to generate content across a number of platforms, with the aim of opening up potential new revenue streams which can further aid the financial sustainability of the Trust. During my time on the Trust board I will also be interested in aiding the development of Exeter City Women FC, looking to capitalise on their recent successes and the growing interest in women’s football to help the club grow and progress further.
