Sweet FA 2020 Winner: Jules Doyle
During lockdown Jules used her social media skills to raise over £5,000 for COVID charities and meals for the NHS. It was a successful social campaign, with the press being a huge support with a homepage takeover on LivingEtc Magazine, to name just one of the fifteen publications that featured the art auction. Artists as prestigious as Julie Cockburn donated pieces.
Jules worked day and night to make the auction a huge success, donating her free time.
We met with Jules to see how she feels about being a Sweet FA 2020 winner and to learn a little more about her.
