After founding and leading XeroE, the UK's first fully emission-free, multimodal delivery service- I've now exited XeroE and am keen to support the next generation of impact-led entrepreneurs. XeroE, now part of Delivery Mates, helped shift the national conversation around green logistics, delivering over a million zero-emission parcels and influencing policy, commercial norms, and public expectations. Mentoring allows me to pass on hard-earned insights, helping others.
