Welcome to March’s Pick of the Month! This month, we are thrilled to highlight individuals making significant strides in the charity sector. From innovative social entrepreneurs to dedicated charity leaders, their stories exemplify resilience, creativity and a profound commitment to positive change. Join us as we delve into their journeys, explore the challenges they’ve overcome and celebrate the impactful work they’re doing in communities across the UK.   

This month we spotlight three changemakers: Leanne Pero, a breast cancer survivor who fights for Black and POC cancer patients through her foundation; Tom Allanson, who uses his social research expertise to advocate for equality with The Equality Trust; and Johannes Petersen, who founded Àban, a social enterprise providing free outdoor education for young people. Read their inspiring stories and learn more about their causes in July's Pick of the Month!

This month, our Picks come from all corners of the charity sector – from basketball to baking! It's promising to see so many indviduals finding creative ways to support and develop communities.
