Claire Simmons

Claire is the proud mum of Isaac, founder of Friends of Isaac’s Food Bank, where she supports the day-to-day running of the organisation and its incredible team. What started as Isaac’s idea has grown into a vital community service, and she is passionate about helping it continue to make a real difference to families in need.

Outside of the food bank, Claire enjoys spending time with the family dog Martha and other pets, exploring her interest in history—particularly the Viking era—and unwinding in the garden whenever she gets the chance.

"I’m honoured to be chosen for the Spokesperson Leadership Programme and excited to use this opportunity to advocate more strongly for our community and the vital work of Friends of Isaac’s Food Bank."
