New team members

We’re really pleased to introduce two new team members this October. It’s great to have them on board and we’re looking forward to working with them to expand and deliver on some great projects over the upcoming months.

Isabel: Fundraiser

After eight years in salaried roles, Isabel set up her own fundraising consultancy practice in 1996, working across the public, voluntary and community sectors.

She has worked with over 220 organisations in many sectors, including arts and heritage, disability, education, environment, health, homelessness, human rights and social welfare. In that time, she has raised over £24m, from individuals, charitable foundations and the corporate sector. She also advises clients on governance, strategic planning and ethical issues, offering a range of services, including training and mentoring.

The arts, however, have always been her passion, though fundraising for the arts has always been challenging and never more so than at the present time, with so many problems besetting us post Covid, with war in Ukraine and the economy in crisis. That said, Isabel feels that the arts, and music in particular, are vital in helping us make sense of this crazy and troubled world.

Ella: Assistant Producer

Since graduating with a degree in Music and a postgraduate degree in Creative Media Industries: Cultural Management, Ella has worked with a range of organisations across the creative sector including charities, commercial agencies, and arts organisations. Working in creative production teams, she has led and supported on production for international orchestral tours, corporate events, and multi-million pound public art programmes. Ella cares deeply about access to music for everyone, and believes strongly in the importance of place-based arts projects that engage communities and create positive and sustainable legacies. 


‘I love working with musicians and enabling fantastic performances that reach audiences outside of the big concert halls. ELMG’s approach, where community engagement is baked into projects from the start, is really inspiring and I look forward to getting stuck into planning and production!’
