STAFF TEAM

Meet our wonderful staff team! Get to know the wonderful people behind our work in North Northumberland! Can you guess who's who among our talented team?

Who is our bee-fanatic? Which team members embrace running enthusiastically, and who prefers bouncing on trampolines or gliding across ice rinks? Who's brave enough for coasteering adventures along our stunning coastline, and who finds their zen through aerial yoga sessions?

Who is immensely practical and whose nails are simply too long for practical tasks? Which team member has caught the travel bug and collects passport stamps, and who rides the waves with their surfboard whenever possible?

Discover the diverse backgrounds that make our team so special - who has experience in scientific research, finance, or engineering? Which team members bring expertise from social work, care, or nursery education? Who's travelled the world and brings that global perspective to our local community?

Who is our art enthusiast with an eye for creativity, and who fills our office with music (and who definitely does not!)? Which team member can fix anything, and who's more likely to be found planning their next adventure than staying put?

Our team's varied interests - from beekeeping to surfing, from running to aerial arts - reflect the rich tapestry of skills and passions that make our work in North Northumberland so vibrant and effective. Each team member brings something unique, whether it's professional expertise or personal enthusiasm, creating the perfect blend of capability and character that serves our community so well.
