Danielle St James

Chief Executive of Not A Phase, UK

A prominent figure within the LGBTQ+ community in the UK, Danielle founded Not A Phase, a charity that supports trans adults through community-focused projects, campaigns, and corporate consultancy. After Danielle discovered that there weren’t any UK charities focused solely on supporting trans and gender-diverse adults, Not A Phase was born in 2020. The charity aims to give the trans and gender nonconforming community space to thrive, while working with organizations on D&I strategies to promote positive change.

Danielle, an influencer and model, is also the founder of Zoah, an inclusive underwear brand that was launched to support the unique needs of trans women, non-binary, and gender nonconforming individuals.
