Lily Howells
Her first role at Social Finance was in the IPS Grow team, helping to support the scaling up of the Individual Placement and Support programme across England, a NICE-recommended, evidence-based model of supported employment for people with severe mental illness or those in contact with drug and alcohol treatment services.
Before joining Social Finance Lily worked for a family drug and alcohol court in Leeds, an innovative service designed to improve outcomes for families in care proceedings that have resulted primarily from parental drug, alcohol and domestic abuse.
She holds a BA in German and Italian from the University of Bristol and an MPhil in Comparative Literatures and Cultures from the University of Cambridge.
