LOOK UP

From our series of interviews with charities and not-for-profits: a conversation with Ally Owen, founder of the Brixton Finishing School.

BFS works with talent from communities under-represented by industry employers. They've been amazing successful in making breakthroughs in a tricky space...and powerful storytelling has been central to their success.

Ally is a digital leader with over 25 years experience in the Media & Advertising industries, in companies like Guardian News and Media, Unruly, MailOnline, Yahoo and more. She founded Brixton Finishing School in 2017 and has been a trail blazer in the industry ever since. 

Our conversation will cover Ally’s experiences in cutting through as a not for profit entity, how storytelling has helped their cause, and how she has overcome challenges along the way. There will be an opportunity for Q&A at the end for attendees.
