Sarah Howes-Jones
Assistant to the CEO
Sarah joined our charity in 2023. Before BWBF she worked for charities including Citizens Advice and Marie Curie.
Sarah has over 10 years of experience in helping organisations run smoothly. She loves working with people.
Sarah started at BWBF in a part-time data-entry job, but it quickly turned into a full-time role supporting our beneficiaries. Now, she assists the CEO with matters relating to governance, policy development and more. She is responsible for helping the charity ensure that everything is in place to help the smooth operation of our activities.
When she's not busy with that, Sarah still loves speaking with BWBF’s service users and hearing the incredible stories they share about BWBF's life-changing service.
Outside of work, Sarah is kept on her toes by by her five children. When she does have any free time, she enjoys reading, listening to music, and judo. As Sarah says, “throwing people in a judoka is a great way to relieve stress!”
