Michelle named as Star of the Future finalist

Harriet Ernstsons-Evans • March 1, 2022

We’re absolutely thrilled to announce that our Founding Director has reached the finals of the WISE100.

Last week, Michelle John was named as one of the UK’s top 100 women in social enterprise and impact investment. Then today, she was revealed as one of the nine finalists in the Star of the Future category.


The category is for any CEO or leader who’s already showing star qualities and is three or fewer years into leading a social enterprise.


It’s the job of guest judge June O’Sullivan from LEYF to pick the winner, with the announcement being made at a ceremony in London on Friday 18th March.


We’re so proud of Michelle, and the difference she’s making to the lives of parents impacted by CPA, through her tireless hard work, determination and resilience.


We’d also like to highlight the fantastic work of the other Star of the Future finalists: Bayo Adelaja from Do it Now Now; Catherine Manning of Social Value UK; Charlotte Newman from Carefree Space; Claire Buckle of Ability Consultancy; Emma Lange of Impact Hub King’s Cross; Gabriela Matouskova from Hope for the Community CIC; Kariba Amachree of Pragmatic Healthcare; and Laura North from We Speak.
