First of its kind

Founder and Director

Rachel started Street Storage in November 2018 after seeing a visible need for the service in the city and in the sector. She manages Street Storage’s strategic vision and growth as well as the financial and operational side of the charity. She speaks regularly at events, conferences and panels across the country, campaigns for change across a wide range of issues and conducts street outreach and emergency response.

She survives mainly on black coffee and hot cross buns.

Storage & Outreach Manager

As our Storage & Outreach Manager, Caroline manages all referrals to our London units as well as reaching out to people who have used or may wish to use Street Storage to ensure that the service is as accessible as possible. Alongside this, Caroline is making links across London with organisations to raise awareness of Street Storage and to develop the range of advice and support that Street Storage can offer people.

Outside of work, she volunteers with the charity Showerbox. Caroline also runs an initiative called Tricky Period - making period products easily accessible to those experiencing homelessness and in need, no questions asked, and in her (very!) limited spare time, loves a bit of amateur dramatics as well as never being able to resist a good old sing song!

Storage Support Worker

Daniella Delmonte joined the Street Storage team in May 2023 to support with the increasing demand for the service. Daniella works closely with Caroline to ensure that people's belongings are securely stored, as well as to provide wider support to individuals as and when needed.

For the past 4 years Daniella has been volunteering for a grassroots service Hackney Streets Kitchen and is a qualified counsellor in integrative counselling.

In her spare time she's a songwriter/singer, enjoys writing poetry and rescues guinea pigs (she currently has 7!)

Frontline Administrator

Lilian joined the Street Storage team in February 2024 as our Frontline Administrator. Her primary focus is providing essential support to the growing charity: serving as the friendly face and voice for those utilising the organisation's services. Lilian consistently strives to establish a warm and inviting atmosphere. She actively works to streamline tasks and assist colleagues with their work. Whether it's supporting the management of referrals or ensuring a stock of much-needed biscuits, Lilian's dedication allows the team to concentrate on their core responsibilities.

Outside of Street Storage Lilian is a trustee for Redbridge Rainbow and dedicates a significant amount of time to personal growth, acquiring new skills and engaging in activities that promote her mental well-being, such as spending time in nature, practicing yoga, and exploring watercolour painting.

Fundraising Manager

Simon joined Street Storage in April 2022 as our Fundraising Manager. His previous jobs have been in Fundraising and Communications for disability and arts charities and he is an experienced challenge event fundraiser, having completed a number of walks, bike rides and a skydive.

Simon has come on board to raise funds for our next stage of growth and development - through Grant and Trust fundraising, corporate partnerships and Individual Giving as well as to improve our existing donor engagement and lead on creative campaigns and events.

Outside work he is a regular runner, gig-goer and season ticket holder at Brentford FC.

UK Replication Manager

Amanda Weiss joined the Street Storage team in August 2023 as our Replication Manager. She is tasked with facilitating the expansion of the charity to additional locations across the country.

Amanda worked as the Operations Manager for the Together in Barnet Night Shelter prior to Street Storage, having been involved with the charity since 2015. She also has experience working in a direct role supporting people access services to improve their mental health and general wellbeing.

Outside of work she enjoys watching stand up comedy, exploring new green spaces in London and lap cuddles with her two cats.

ICB Certified Bookkeeper

Lisa joined Street Storage as a volunteer in September 2021 to support the charity with their Bookkeeping. It soon became clear Street Storage needed a paid Bookkeeper (!) and she now works weekly providing financial support to the senior staff team, our Independent Examiner and Board of Trustees. Lisa's advice and guidance gives Street Storage the clarity and peace of mind needed to make important decisions for its growth and sustainability.

Lisa runs her own Bookkeeping practice in North Scotland - LMBA Bookkeeping - and has recently qualified as a Level 4 - the highest-level qualification awarded by the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers.

Outside of work, Lisa spends a fair bit of her time travelling, whether it's locally with her dog Rocco or a bit further out to meet family spread across the UK.
