Forever Manchester, the community foundation for Greater Manchester established almost four decades ago, has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of Anne-Marie Wynne as its new director of philanthropy development & marketing.
Wynne joins Forever Manchester from Moya Cole (previously St Ann’s) Hospice, where she was head of fundraising and capital campaign.

I believe strongly in the value of communities and people working together to create happiness and support each other within our villages, towns and cities. I am delighted to be playing my part in giving our region a hand up, and look forward to developing relationships across the region that will help to develop our community programmes.”
