Anna Williams, Communications and Fundraising Officer

Anna joined us in April 2021 to develop our communication channels, and raise our profile online and in the media. Having spent more than five years working as a reporter and news editor in local news, as well as working with her own clients as a PR consultant for five years, Anna brings an in-depth knowledge of effective communications, social media, and story-telling to the team.

Anna – born and bred in Shropshire – has been involved with the charity for more than 15 years since she used to write the Shrewsbury Chronicle’s Lingen Davies page, and she has also taken part in a number of our events.

“I am so pleased to join the team and help publicise the work of the Lingen Davies Cancer Fund. I used to talk to people going through treatment and fundraising for the charity when I worked on the paper, it feels like a full circle to be back doing that again, and that’s great. 

“It is such a vital charity to so many local people – after such a hard year with Covid and all the restrictions on meeting people – it’s wonderful to be able to publicise our events again and tell the stories of our amazing supporters. I am really excited to be part of this dedicated and driven team.”
