Navi Aulkh is a passionate brand strategist, creative consultant, and community leader with over 15 years of experience driving meaningful change in the third sector. As the founder of Sodium & Co, Navi specialises in crafting thoughtful and impactful brand strategies that amplify the missions of charities and community organisations.

Based in Wolverhampton, Navi is deeply committed to her local community.
