2017 will see more changes to the Boob Team. Natalie Kelly will move from her role as Director of Brand, Marketing and Comms to CEO from January and Sophie Dopierala will also start the new year in her role of Director of Education and Health Comms.

With this team growth, cementing the CoppaFeel! values instilled by our founders will ensure that our culture of teamwork, personal touches, challenger mentality and keeping young people at the heart of what we do remain at the core of the charity.
