Meam
Making Every Adult Matter (MEAM) is the national charity supporting practitioners, policymakers and people with lived experience to transform services and 
systems for people facing multiple disadvantage.
Formed as a coalition in 2009, we work across sectors, across government, and with more than 50 local areas to improve responses and change lives.
Since January 2025, we operate as a charity with our partners Clinks, Collective Voice, Homeless Link and Mind on our board.
Richard Lewis is Head of External Affairs at Making Every Adult Matter (MEAM), based in London. He leads on the support contract to the Government/Lottery-funded Changing Futures programme, as well as having responsibility for external policy & comms and external consultancy opportunities for MEAM.
