Sally Bailey said: "Pilotlight is the only organisation in the UK transforming the fortunes of hundreds of frontline charities through fully managed engagements between charity leaders and dynamic business people. This exciting model of giving strategically to charities whilst getting back through experiential learning fits perfectly with my belief that good businesses combine profit and purpose. I’ll be championing Pilotlight with like-minded leaders to bring life-changing opportunities to more charities."
