Fife Gingerbread's CEO Laura Miller presents their Stargazing strategy.Over recent months Fife Gingerbread have embarked on a stargazing exercise to consider where they are now and where they'd like to be. They have engaged with their board, staff, volunteers, and parents forum to explore short-term priorities and longer term ambitions.

- Reimagining their board and leadership approach
- Offering staff good, well paid employment that enables a healthy work/life balance
