Ursula Boardman Head of Centre - The CRUMBS Project, Bournemouth
Ursula has spent over 15 years of her career helping adults with disabilities or neurodivergences to defy the odds and gain employment in the hospitality industry. Through working for The CRUMBS Project, Ursula has been instrumental in the development of the charity's professional training and development programmes to give disadvantaged adults the opportunity and support to develop their professional, social, and life skills. Ursula has progressed to lead the now award winning charity and dedicates herself to advocating for the rights and promoting the social inclusion of the disadvantaged. 90% of trainees gain employment within the hospitality industry in Dorset after completing their training programmes. Ursula’s passion for her work and her ability to see the potential in people and encourage them to overcome obstacles to succeed makes her a worthy recipient of the hospitality hero award.
