100 YEARS OF WOMEN IN LAW
University of Glasgow – Women in Law Project (January 2019 – present)
I designed the concept of the website and social media to make the 100 Voices of Women in Law shareable and impactful
Alongside the research team, I created this timeline of women in law
I helped to organise a project launch event with Lady Hale as keynote speaker
I provided my own voice of my experience in law
Created this video to launch the event
I designed the concept and provided the copy for the banner stands, postcards etc. for events.
I continue to collate and research females in law, past and present which are shared weekly on the First 100 Years website.

Social Media
I created a community around the hospital on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. There was no Twitter or Instagram when I started, and a very young Facebook. With no budget, I was limited with the impact I could make here. All were donor focussed with a rich calendar celebrating the successes of St John around awareness and charity days and thanking our wider global donor-base.
https://twitter.com/StJohnEyeHosp - grew followers to 2,000
https://www.instagram.com/stjohneyehospital/ - grew followers to over 1,000
https://www.facebook.com/stjohneyehospital/ - increased followers by 600%
I also recognised and championed for patient communications to be invested in and taken seriously. This included setting up an Arabic Facebook page for patient communications. This has had a significant impact in 2019 through using our projects team and a Palestinian agency to promote eye health across Palestine, with the hope to launch a website in the next year for our patients.
