J P

JP has pioneered and piloted One Feeds Two in Edinburgh with his business, The Elephant Juice Food Co - providing 37,500 meals to children living in poverty.

With a corporate background, JP spent his early professional life as a restructuring and insolvency lawyer with a Tier 1 Law Firm in Edinburgh. JP’s role required him to lead and project manage complex restructuring transactions acting for the major clearing banks and accountancy practices throughout the UK during 2008-2011 banking crisis.

JP loves to travel and has a real passion for exploring new cultures, inspired from accompanying his father, who is CEO of large Scottish Charity, on numerous trips to Eastern Europe in his teens. Experiencing real poverty on such trips has been one of key reasons for JP now venturing into the charitable sector.

JP is married to Corrina, who is a primary school teacher and they are adapting to life with their new born Jessie Mae. The pair met playing hockey together in their childhood and both went on to compete internationally before retiring for more relaxing Saturday run outs with their local clubs! When they are not taking to the hockey pitch or changing nappies they can be found exploring the beaches of East Lothian with their mischievous dog, Maverick.
