Gilli Sinclair

Kia ora, I’m delighted and privileged to be part of the Brain Injured Children Trust. I’m super impressed with the work that Shirley and her team does and look forward to working with them again. It is a truly amazing organisation.

My background is in health – with a strong focus on vulnerable people and communities. My specialty was suicide and designing and developing services for people who are abused, in prisons, care and protection and most recently I managed StarJam and prior to that the health and detox services at Auckland City Mission.

I have a strong DNA for the social profit sector (AKA Not for profits) and have spent over 30 years working for Make-A-Wish and a variety of charities over the past years. I have also had the privilege of being the CEO of the Cerebral Palsy Society, Go Baby Go (small electric cars for children who have physical mobility issues) and the Paediatric Oncology Steering Group I have three wonderful kids and four amazing grand kids. I live at the beach- usually with a rescue dog. I love summer, beaches, reading, travelling and family.
