Tess Tollast
Reason for nomination:
Tess has dedicated her career to sports through the creativity and passion she puts into her work. She is a women's football fan and attends matches to support her team. I am nominating Tess because her work deserves to be recognised and I want to help her learn more about the opportunities, support and community she has as a woman working within sport. She is a kind, talented, unique and driven person who I think will benefit greatly from what the We See You Network has to offer.
Tess worked for Brentford FC Community Sports Trust for over 2 years as a graphic designer and creative lead where she attended charity events, designed impact reports and pitchside LEDs. She now works for Brentford FC as a matchday designer.
Tess has an instagram account where she shares her graphic designs that showcase sporting talent in unique creative ways. She previously ran her own Etsy store where she sold her designs as posters, cards and badges. Tess was also commissioned in 2021 to create a design for the screens at Wembley Park which celebrated the people who helped make Wembley so memorable.
