Together, we planned to build something very special in honour of my Mum and Dad. This felt like nothing short of bringing my parents back to life before my eyes. It was an incredibly moving experience. Alex never met my parents, but I feel she knows them very well."- Trevor Beattie, The Jack and Ada Beattie Foundation "From the beginning, Alex assisted the7stars foundation’s trustees to establish the foundation, create our operational policies in line with charity commission best practice and develop our grant programme to ensure we support those vulnerable 16 year olds and under, who need it most. We are particularly proud of the partnership we have launched with Coram Chambers, devised by Alex and Richard Yorke, the first of its kind in the grant-making industry. The foundation would not have been as successful if it weren’t for Canvas and Alex."- the7stars Foundation "I can’t speak highly enough about the quality of your work. Well done."- Bob Holt, OBE, The Footprints Foundation & Lakehouse PLC Group.
