Glimpse is a global collective, supported by a core team of producers, strategists and facilitators.

Meet our core team below!

James Turner


Founder / Creative Director

James has a passion for using creativity on things that don’t currently see much of it. After an early career at the BBC and ITV, he jumped ship to join Greenpeace’s communications team and spent ten years working on climate change, deforestation 
and Arctic oil drilling.

He founded Glimpse in 2016 as an experiment to 
see what happens when creativity isn’t used to sell stuff, but to communicate a vision of a better world.
