Leadership Team Volunteers
- The Head of Mentoring role has always been shared by two volunteer members. Sally-Anne Holman stepped down in summer 2017, meaning that Alison Edwards is doing the job alone. Ali is also the Company Secretary and runs Introductory Workshops for Doula UK – so has quite a full plate, in addition to her personal and professional commitments! This position is open to any Doula UK Doula Mentor – for more details drop Ali a line on mentoring@doula.org.uk
- The Head of Education is responsible for the creation and assessment of the Doula UK educational offer, including the Core Curriculum and Observations and Evaluations of Doula Preparation Courses. If you come from an Education background, or have transferable skills which you think could benefit the organisation in this role, please email lizzie@doula.org.uk
The Leadership Team meets quarterly in person, and holds online meetings in between as required. In addition the team uses an online communication platform called Slack, to manage the day to day task of running Doula UK, with Lizzie (the Operation Manager)’s support.
