Susan Poupard

Susan’s background is in online communications, publishing and PR. She is currently working part time doing website editing/design whilst studying for an MSc at the Centre for Sustainable Heritage at University College London. As part of this she is working with the National Trust to make their historic buildings more energy efficient. Susan is really excited about Challenge Europe and looking forward to working on a community-based project to raise awareness and bring people together to tackle climate change. She is really interested in building links between different European countries too and feels that it would be brilliant if there are opportunities for collaboration between different countries' projects.
