5050vision is pleased to announce that it has appoiinted Viv Gee to the position of Head of 5050vision. Viv took up her post on 1 December 2009.
Viv has spent the last nine and a half years as European Policy Manager for the Northwest Regional Development Agency, working on European policy and funding. Prior to this she worked on skills and employment issues at a local and regional level for jobcentres in the South East of England, and then at South and East Cheshire Training and Enterprise Council, where her involvement with European activity began.
A major part of her time over the last four years has been taken up with involvement in the European aspects of the demographic change and ageing agenda. This included speaking on how the North West is tackling the issue at a major European conference in Brussels – Regions For All Ages. She also led the Northwest Regional European Partnership Demographic Change Group.

Viv enjoys reading historical novels, theatre and music, and has recently discovered the gardening bug.
