It is important in this summary, that I mention my own origins, and thus my heartfelt desire to make a difference in this field. I was born a baby of a gang rape, and adopted as a baby. I was brought up in a Christian home and went into the ministry and eventually to the UK.
In establishing City Hearts in the Uk, my desire was to help, but the favour of God fell on the organisation. I was approached by the South Yorkshire police to help them, and the organisation grew from there.
Perhaps the most poignant day, was seeing in a drop in, 35 prams sitting in the foyer. These prams represented the babies of the trafficking victims whose lives we had actually saved.
Many of the survivors were rescued and many came to a great faith.
It is my hearts desire to continue this work now I am back in my homeland.
My biggest skill set is leadership, and also an innate understanding of people.
I am very well connected in Australia, knowing personally the leaders of three major denominations, and also a number of Christian Philanthropists. These funders desire to sow finance into organisations that are Christian based and who's ethos is strong.
In addition, I am a strong public speaker, and have spoken in churches across Australia and across the world.
City Hearts worked with the Uk Government and handled multi million pound budgets.
We started Hope City Church in 1991 and grew the church to over 3500 people across 13 locations. These were in the Uk, Germany, Malaysia and Ghana.
I oversaw the women and ran a large women’s conference across the 4 continents. This conference bankrolled much of the initial work of the development of the City Hearts charity, that was in the field of modern day slavery.
I have spoken in over 50 churches in the last year alone across multiple denominations. These were in the Uk, Australia, New Zealand and The United States.
I have been mentoring Not for Profits charities in their development, and also a number of Christian Philanthropist funding platforms.
In addition, having pastored large churches and run a large anti trafficking charity, I have a world view and experience in the area of human trafficking
Furthermore it is completely my hearts desire to again be involved in the solution to this worldwide problem
Having lived overseas, I understand it in a both local and international context
