NATHALIE MCDERMOTT

I’m on a mission to use storytelling to create the conditions for long-term social change.

Nathalie is the Founder and CEO of Heard, a charity that works with people and the media to inspire content and communication that changes hearts and minds. With 20 years of experience in the media and charity sectors, Nathalie is passionate about finding common ground on big, important issues, such as climate change, poverty, domestic abuse, and migration. Her work aims to create the necessary conditions for long-term social change.

Nathalie started her career as a journalist, working at the BBC and the Guardian, where she produced the first Media, Science and Politics podcasts. She then launched Heard (formerly On Road Media) in 2008, with the vision of introducing new perspectives and experiences across the stories we see and hear in the media.

Nathalie is also a folk singer and she loves performing live and singing with friends and family. She is a keen outdoor swimmer and mother to two wonderful daughters.
