Prior to Our Future, Florence was Director of the Environmental Funders Network for 12 years, during which time EFN became the largest and most dynamic funder affinity group in the UK and funding for environmental causes tripled.
In 2012, she moved to the UK from the United States, where she ran a conservation grant-making programme at the National Audubon Society called TogetherGreen. She is a trustee of Gower Street, a grantmaking trust that supports climate change work in the UK and Ghana, and of the Hedgerley Wood Trust, a local climate action charity. She is joining the new steering group of the Local Storytelling Exchange and enjoys weekly work at a local farm in exchange for vegetables.
