Lisa Andrews
I have over thirty years of experience in financial services, lending solutions, and property management in London.
In July 2024, I was made a Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Fan Makers, and I am actively involved in volunteering with City Harvest, the Soup Kitchen, and, more recently, mentoring through the Amplify Me programme with the Local Village Network.
Travel and yoga are passions of mine, along with neuroscience, holistic, and somatic healing. I have recently started a foundation course in counselling and psychotherapy, learning valuable skills that support both my day-to-day life and my mentoring and charity work.
I am delighted to be an Ambassador for The Victoria Foundation and look forward to continuing to be on the ball committee and taking forward new opportunities I have to gain support for the charity.
