Katie is delighted to be joining St James’s Piccadilly as Heritage Programme Manager, working on the Wren Project to explore new ways of bringing the church’s rich history to life.

She is particularly interested in how historic places can bring people together, inspire new perspectives and create meaningful connections between the people of the past and the present.
