I am… Chris Godsmark, the Digital Platform Coordinator. I work largely on maintaining and updating FUSE, our digital learning platform for communities and programmes led by Moving Ahead and Women Ahead.

I’ve been… a watersports instructor in Greece and Croatia for three summers and have spent the last two winters living in the mountains in France since graduating from Newcastle University in History in 2017. I’ve enjoyed living abroad and learning about new cultures and a different way of life.

I bring… experience of working in a people centric environment, where taking the time to learn about others is a priority. I have managed teams of 20 to 30 people and have experienced the positive difference that can be made from creating an inclusive environment, both from a personal and professional perspective. Women Ahead and Moving Ahead helps to make this the norm and I want to support wherever I can.

Women Ahead and Moving Ahead is… a fantastic opportunity for me to support a great cause. The values of learning through listening and collective experience is something I strongly believe in. Diversity and inclusivity within the workplace and in everyday life benefits everyone and Women Ahead and Moving Ahead champion this relentlessly.
