She leads the Supply London programme, which is directly funded by the London Development Agency and delivered through Business Link for London. Supply London, now in its fourth year, provides a programme of capacity building workshops for SMEs plus one-on-one advice delivered by a team of supply chain professionals drawn from specialist areas within the private sector. The programme aims to highlight the benefits of using SMEs in London's supply chains and ensure that SMEs are ready to take advantage of opportunities.
