I consider it a great privilege to have been appointed a Trustee of West Sussex Mind in September 2020. Like many, I have friends who struggle with mental health issues and know what it’s like to feel ill equipped on my own to provide the support they need.
I am delighted to be able to play a small part alongside many wonderful people in West Sussex Mind in providing a service that truly makes a difference to so many people in our community.
I worked for 25 years in senior management positions in the financial services industry but for the last few years have been working for a local charity which offers general advice to people in need. I am also a leader in our local church in Haywards Heath.
I am looking forward to bringing some of the insights I have gained from these and other life experiences to help West Sussex Mind make an even greater impact in the lives of our service users and their carers.
