What we do at Naturally Social?
Our story begins in 2015 with Natalie Sherman, a social media manager who had been honing her craft in the action (and occasional mania) of local government. Moving on from those oh-so-fun days, Natalie was determined to harness social media to resource the difference-makers of the world – whether they be charities or companies.
