Presenters

Lauren Ward, Senior Campaign Manager, Inspired Adventures
Lauren is originally from the UK and has been living in Australia since 2019. She has been working in fundraising and the charity sector since she graduated university with a degree in English, and has supported many organisations in achieving their fundraising goals, even taking on challenges like the Paris Marathon herself!
In her spare time, she loves to read, experiment with baking, go to judo training and of course travel whenever she gets the chance. Her aim for the next year is to finally get to see Uluru in person, but her favourite place she has visited so far has been Japan.
