Imogen Downing

My job is to raise money for Possible’s campaigns and projects and to help those people funding us see why our work is so great. I work with a lot of trusts and foundations as well as companies and individual givers to make sure that all our projects have the money they need to be a success.

I grew up in a household of hippies so environmentalism has always been part of my life, whether it was raising chickens or running an eco glamping site on a Scottish island. I started volunteering with environmental charities when I was at high school but always wanted to get more people involved and have an even bigger impact – that’s when I found Possible!

Outside of work I love doing a whole range of things including ice skating, gardening (often badly) painting (always badly) and, most importantly, loving my dog!
