Our People
The Banner Foundation is made up of a diverse group of people and passionate volunteers, all working together toward the same goal.
How it all began...
A spark of inspiration was ignited by a small but ambitious team, fuelled by their passion for supporting children from all backgrounds to thrive and prosper.
​
With endless enthusiastic chats around the boardroom table, too many exciting ideas scribbled in notebooks to count, and even a trip or two to the zoo, the team created something they were truly proud of.
Something they knew could make a difference!
That initial spark, the boardroom talks and scribbles on paper have since grown into what we now know as the Banner Foundation. That small team has expanded, but our passion and mission remain the same.

Lorraine Weaving
I have been employed in the third sector since 2010, primarily managing charities that support people who have experienced trauma. Throughout my career I have seen the tangible and sustainable difference that charitable organisations make to individuals and their communities. This difference can come in many forms, even the seemingly smallest act of support can have a really positive impact.
My work has also shown me the disadvantages so many people within our community’s face and I am passionate about equality and inclusion. Additionally, as a mum of two (now grown up) girls, I am particularly inspired to involved in something that supports children. So, when the opportunity came up to be involved with The Banner Foundation I naturally jumped at the chance! I am excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to such an exciting venture.
