Jill Ritchie
A born entrepreneur, I started my first business at the age of 18 while also studying. By 28, I had created jobs for 120 people in a factory with seven retail outlets. However, I was spending more time doing voluntary rather than paid work. I then entered the non-profit sector part time while also writing and started my own fundraising consultancy and book publishing business, which I have run for over three decades, with offices in the UK and South Africa.

I advise non-profits and universities globally, primarily on raising money from the UK.
