David Robinson

David founded We Are What We Do and is now Chair of our Board. He lives and works in Newham where he set up Community Links, a groundbreaking inner city charity that delivers practical projects in East London, influences organisations across the UK and contributes to national government policy. If he were to begin again, David would find a circus that could use a magician with more enthusiasm than talent and a small time juggler who's a bit of a devil with the Devil Sticks. As it is they are half forgotten hobbies which get very little attention from a full time community worker and father of three. Read his full biography here.

Eugenie Harvey

Eugenie founded We Are What We Do with David Robinson and now sits on the Board. Born in Sydney, Eugenie has had a glowing career in PR and communications. She came to England in 2002 to find a way to use her skills to help others and has been living and working here, fronting up We Are What We Do, ever since. She is married, has an eight-year-old daughter called Cara, and a half-chihuahuan dog called Lisa. Eugenie is good at drinking white wine and bad at catching trains. Read her full biography here.

Nick Stanhope

Nick is the Managing Director of We Are What We Do. He has worked in communities and on social communications for 7 years, working with charities like Anti-Slavery International, TimeBank and Kids and with companies such as T-Mobile, Barclays and Sony. He originally joined We Are What We Do to launch their schools work and became Managing Director in April 2009. He has cycled across Africa, written a book, Blood, Sweat and Charity, and doesn't like emoticons at all :-( Read his full biography here.

Tori Flower

Tori is our Creative Director. She worked for London advertising agency WCRS for several years before running away to teach graphic design in Kathmandu, English in Kerala and sew fabric laptops. She now has the messiest desk in the We Are What We Do office and constantly says she works for We Are What You Do.

Nicole Van Den Eijnde

Nicole is our Education Manager. She's often out and about visiting schools, running training programmes and getting our Young Speakers fired up. Nicole was born in Vancouver to Dutch parents, grew up in Brussels and has lived in Madrid, Bristol and all over Latin America. She has worked for several education charities, has an MA in education and international development, and perhaps most impressively, is a Black Belt in Kung Fu.

Emma Whitehead

Emma is our Education Officer, working closely with Nicole. Emma has taught history in a Holland Park school and worked producing educational content for Channel 4 Learning. She makes a mean ginger cookie, even if the We Are What We Do logo engraved on top looks more like a wonky rainbow.

Michael Daley

Mike is our resident web expert. He created this lovely website and can usually be found shouting at Bulgarian programmers over Skype. He has worked for a number of different companies and charities and set up his own web development company in Sofia. Mike is American and is mocked for his love of emoticons and loved for his love of hugs. He makes a strange cup of tea.

Ella Wiggans

Ella is the Office Manager and generally runs the joint. When she is not paying people or bullying others for money she gets dragged into gift-wrapping diaries, sending birthday cards to young speakers, researching bookcases and keeping the office in fruit supplies. She's also a nifty knitter.

Julia Ross

Julia is our Financial Director and makes sure we're still going to be around next month. When she's not working with us, she's doing the sums for two market research companies and a fruit and veg company and looking after her three kids. Julia enjoys making jam, swapping books and eating dessert.

Frances Clarke

Frances runs the We Are What We Do community project in the London Borough of Newham. She has been doing community projects for 30 years. Her favourite involved driving a double decker community bus, which as Frances is only 5ft 1, looked like it was being driven by a child. She has three children, a guinea pig an an interest in astronomy.
