CRASH Newsletter: March 2024

CRASH joins #OpenDoors24 and helps expand children’s hospice

Hospice can now help more children and their families

“… It was clear from the second we stepped through the door that the staff at the Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice truly care about helping families make the most of every moment that they have together, and it feels very special to be able to use my professional skills to help CRASH support the charity on this project.”
Mark Lee, Associate – Lenders, Investors and Insurers at Arcadis

CRASH Chief Executive Francesca Roberts to retire

Since her appointment in 2007, Francesca has been instrumental in shaping CRASH into the unique and thriving charity it is today. Francesca sought to understand the challenges faced by charities who rely on their buildings to deliver essential services and involved the construction industry to help them. Thank you for your exceptional leadership Francesca, we wish you a happy retirement!

CRASH is delighted to announce incoming Chief Executive, Trisha Pickersgill, current Director of Business Development, Operations & Performance at Rennie Grove Hospice Care – a benefitting charity of CRASH’s work.
