ECVS pays tribute to County colleague

Posted on: August 24, 2022

On Monday 22nd August it was announced by Thurrock CVS that their Chief Officer, our colleague and friend Kristina Jackson had passed away.

Kristina was an inspirational colleague whose dedication to the communities of Thurrock and latterly Southend was obvious to all who had the pleasure of working with her. As a team member within the Essex CVS network she was supportive to her colleagues often being a balanced voice who was not afraid to challenge with respect, fairness and humour.

On behalf of ECVS we send condolences to her team in both Thurrock CVS and Southend AVS, where she also held the role of Chief Officer until May this year, the wider community, her friends, family and partner Simon.

Kristina will be hugely missed by all that worked with her.

Sarah Troop and Clive Emmett
Co-chairs of ECVS in behalf of ECVS
