Joanna has been living in Brighton & Hove for 7 years, moving here from London with her partner and 2 kids.
‘Brighton was a destination I fell in love with as a child. It was where my parents met in 1974, and it was always a family favourite for weekends away. Moving here in 2017, this eccentric, energetic and eclectic city quickly won my heart. Brighton is a bustling hub of culture, culinary delight, and creativity. Brighton Fringe is at the heart of everything Brighton represents – a world stage that pushes the boundaries in diversity of thought, creativity and form.
I felt privileged to be invited to be a Trustee of Brighton Fringe. Not only do I want to help stretch, develop and grow the reputation and scale of this festival. But I feel a responsibility as a Brighton citizen, to help to propel and promote the vibrancy, colour and character of this glorious city to an international audience.’
