PUBLIC SECTOR: Muscular Dystrophy loses comms head

The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign’s communications and fund-raising director Elaine Bennett is to lose communications head Paula Keaveney. Keaveney will be leaving to join the Merseyside-based Autism Initiative as appeals and marketing manager before the end of the year. Keaveney oversees a team of three, with a brief to raise awareness of the research and care offered by the service, and to communicate with those affected by the disease and those who care for sufferers.
