Establishing The Pencil Case Project from my kitchen table during exams has been a whirlwind and a journey beyond anything I could have anticipated. What started as cold emailing and packing each pencil case individually has now grown to be a project that has donated 500+ pencil cases, alongside schools, organisations and charities across the UK, Africa and Asia.

As a student at the University of St Andrews, I am excited to pursue a career in interpreting and social entrepreneurship. From the beginning, my sole ambition has been to build something by young people for other young people.

I am truly excited about the future growth of The Pencil Case Project, and I am always looking to expand our amazing team of youth volunteers, from Marketing to Finance.

I hope you can share my passion and enthusiasm for building a movement in which we are able to help reduce educational inequality, one pencil case at a time.
