About Christina Poulton

I have worked for arts and not for profit organisations and with individual artists across the UK since Linkin Park were topping the charts. I love working with people on their business planning, policies, fundraising, organisational development and procedures – all the things that underpin the arts and allow amazing projects to happen. I support organisations and freelancers to make your work easier to manage and fund, so you can focus on the creative work. My training is informed by extensive, current experience.https://www.christinapoultoncreative.co.uk/
