About Samantha

I am a chartered town planner and a practitioner member of IEMA. I have worked in the filed of planning and environmental impact for many years but I feel I always have more to learn. Outside work I cycle, run, do pilates and play the cello.

About Connie

I have been a member of IEMA for a number of years and in the last year have achieved Practitioner status. Over the last 10 years I have held various environmental and sustainability roles in an organisation that is at the heart of the circular economy. One of the most successful projects I have worked on was a campaign about bees and improving biodiversity both at our company locations and within the local community. I enjoy spending time running and cycling and tending to my garden and making it more pollinator friendly.

About Jenna-Marie

Jenna-Marie (Jen) Smallwood has both a Bachelor of Science in Political Science with a focus on Environmental Studies and Legal Studies and a LLM in Global Environment and Climate Change Law. Having lived, studied, and been actively involved in environmental advocacy work in both South Africa and the USA, she is now excited to have the opportunity to be more actively involved in the environmental advocacy work currently being done in the UK. Her experience has solidified the notion of thinking global but acting local as she believes this is the key to making the swift, sweeping, and sustainable actions needed to meet IEMA’s goal of transforming the world to sustainability.
