Amy Heritage

Amy has spent over a decade working in the charity sector, from global development to national and smaller local charities – with roles across content, digital, comms and fundraising.

She enjoys wearing many hats and the variety that charity can bring; from travelling to Vietnam with Miriam Margolyes, to writing as Paddington Bear, and helping feed London during the pandemic through the Evening Standard’s biggest-ever appeal.

She is currently Director of Fundraising, Marketing and Communications at akt, where she is focused on growing income, deepening supporter relationships, and telling better stories about youth homelessness and queer futures.
