WINCHESTER charity Fixers has appointed its newest member of the trust.

Founder and chief executive of communications agency Remarkable, Stephen Pomeroy, has become trustee for the youth action charity.

It works to help people aged between 16-25 across the UK through a range of activities and campaigns.

Mr Pomeroy said: “Fixers has shown how, with the right support, young people can achieve incredibly positive results and help others face up to issues that they themselves might have battled. It’s an incredibly motivating organisation.

“For me, Fixers is a perfect fit between the inspirational messages its activists are sending out into the world and my own experience of national communications. It’s a great challenge and I hope to help them achieve even more.”

Fixers chief executive officer, Margo Horsley, said: “We’re delighted to have Stephen on board. He brings a wealth of experience and great talent to the table and we know he will help us achieve our goal of more young people getting their voice heard on the issues that matter to them and Fixers becoming a household name.

“Stephen’s company Remarkable and Fixers both have a great track record and also a strong synergy, not least because both are operating on a national level but with our roots in Winchester.”
