Look Good Feel Better

30 Faces – Sarah Lenson

Meet Sarah, one of the charity’s longest-serving members of staff and our Head of Operations.  Sarah is as passionate about her job as it is possible to be. She joined the charity as far back as 2013, after answering an advert in the local paper seeking an Executive Assistant.  In those days, there were six people working at the head office in Epsom, hosting 65 workshop locations nationwide and having supported 100,000 beneficiaries to date.

Sarah has not looked back and has thrown herself into her job with incredible enthusiasm, a real passion and endless energy.  Long since promoted to Head of Operations, Sarah has seen some significant changes in the charity, which now supports more beneficiaries than ever before and runs workshops in over 130 locations.  From day-to-day office procedures, systems and large-scale event management, Sarah is on top of it all.

She says:

“Of course, COVID 19 brought about some major changes, forcing us to move on-line, but also pushing us to expand the range of services we offer. 

“However, the essence of what we do has remained the same throughout – and our mission hasn’t changed.   What we do and how people feel is consistent – it is all about improving people’s self-confidence.  I want people to feel good about themselves, and every time I speak to a beneficiary and hear how much better they feel after a workshop, it still makes me tingle, even after all these years.

“I knew from day one that this job was meant to be. Look Good Feel Better plays a huge role in my life and I feel privileged to be working here.”

And we are all grateful for Sarah’s hard work and dedication over the years, and for years to come.
