Lora Payne

Secretary

Lora was born and raised in Edwardsville, in the Merthyr Valley, and became a mum at 18—an experience that shaped her resilience and deep-rooted passion for helping others. She went on to study at the University of South Wales, where she completed a Degree in Business, laying the foundation for her entrepreneurial journey.

In 2018, Lora founded LCVA Services Ltd, a business built around her belief in flexible working and empowering others. LCVA provides virtual assistance and operational support to organisations and entrepreneurs across the UK, allowing Lora to channel her drive for efficiency and compassion into a thriving enterprise.

When Lora was introduced to Rhian through her professional network, she was in awe of her story and the journey behind 2wish. Instantly, she knew she wanted to help in any way she could. She was deeply moved by the charity’s mission and feels privileged to be part of the 2wish team, honoured to support its journey as Secretary of the Board
