The Advocate is the first online service dedicated entirely to promoting the activities of not-for-profits and charities – organisations that sometimes find their messages swamped by the deluge of competing media releases and stories.
The vision, which started in 2014, is for the charitable sector – and those with an interest in it – to have a dedicated portal to follow campaigns and news.
The Advocate is geared towards a niche audience who care about social justice issues like poverty, the foreign aid budget and health.

He also has over 10 years experience as a media and communications professional for not-for-profits and charities.
