Natalie Russell-Wall

Bereavement Lead

Natalie is a dedicated finance professional specialising in improving systems and workflows, with extensive experience across several sectors. Her personal journey is one of remarkable resilience. Natalie moved to the UK in her early twenties and started a family. However, after the tragic and sudden loss of her husband to a fast and aggressive illness while Natalie was pregnant with their second child, she faced the immense challenge of grieving and raising two small children on her own. Natalie navigated this difficult period with unwavering strength, organising her husband’s funeral alone and quickly adapting to life as a young widow. She went on to study at West London College and paved the way for her career. Today, Natalie is happily remarried to her loving husband, Alex, and the proud mother of two teenagers. Her story of overcoming adversity and finding happiness again is an inspiration. As a Bereavement Lead for the Mortality Alliance, Natalie helps to make a more supportive world for other young parents who are bereaved of a partner.
