Fiona Rawes

Fiona retired in spring 2025 having previously served as the Philanthropy Director at the City of London Corporation, charged with shaping and leading the £55m annual contribution of time, assets, money and skills made by the Corporation. This role required her to operate cross-sectorally across the City Corporation’s many business, governmental and not-for-profit stakeholders, and drew on over 20 years previous not for profit experience in senior roles in organisations such as British Red Cross, Business in the Community and, most recently, Teach First.

A qualified Solicitor, Fiona was also a board member for Islington Giving and served on the London and South East Grants Committee for BBC Children in Need. She was awarded an MBE in 2010 for services to Corporate Social Responsibility.
