Abbe Stapleton

Abbe has worked for charity Oasis Trust for 15 years leading homelessness services for young poeple in London, inclusion work for young people at risk of exclusion from schools, and now heads up a large team developing youth and community services around some of the most disadvantaged areas of England. In 2010 she went from being a non runner to running the London marathon to rasie much needed funding for the work. She was my boss, and a brilliantly inspiring one at that and does everything with passion and a big heart.
