Magic Breakfast - Fuel For Learning
The Team
Carmel McConnell M.MBA, F.RSA

Carmel's background is a mixture of activism and senior corporate roles.

A long time ago Carmel lived at Greenham Common, then via big corporate life became a successful ethics consultant to business. While researching her first book, Change Activist, she became aware of the huge, unseen problem of children arriving at school too hungry to learn and decided to do something about it.

She has an MBA in leading complex change and is author of five business and social change titles, including business best seller "Change Activist" and "The Happiness Plan" translated into 5 languages. Carmel was awarded the Social Entrepreneur of the Year (New Statesman/Edge) in 2008 and now works full time, on Magic Breakfast.

Alex joined Magic Breakfast in January 2009, having graduated from Queen Mary, University of London with a degree in English Literature. First starting at Magic Breakfast as administrative support one day a week, Alex worked the rest of the week as a freelance PR consultant. As a consultant he worked primarily for publishers such as Pearson Education and its imprints. As time went on, Alex became more and more involved with Magic Breakfast, becoming increasingly passionate about the cause and devoting more and more of his week to the charity. In Spring 2010, Alex took on the role of School Liaison and Project Manager at Magic Breakfast. Alex eventually took on the full time role of Programme and Operations Manager.
