Debbie Minett
Debbie says –
“I am a solicitor in my 50’s working in Exeter but living in Bishopsteignton. I have been loving living in Devon for over 4 years. I found Alice Cross through a poster advertising a music event which I went to by myself. I discovered that I am the sort of person who would benefit from what they are trying to do. After finding out more I decided to become a trustee to help promote the centre to people in their younger older years . ”
Sue Halfyard
Sue says –
“I am lawyer who works for a firm of Solicitors in Teignmouth in their wealth management department. I deal with the preparation of Wills and Powers of Attorney and the administration of estates (probate). I became a Trustee as I felt that the Centre was a vital resource for the people of Teignmouth and that I would be able to use my knowledge to help the Charity and the people who use the Centre.”
Lizzie Batson
Lizzie says –
“I first moved to West Devon in 1983 but following a change in my circumstances felt that I needed to be part of a larger community and made the decision to move to Bishopsteignton in 2019. I was introduced to the Alice Cross Centre by a friend and have a great belief in its holistic approach to supporting the community, encouraging friendship and improving people’s health and well-being. I strongly believe that my own life experiences and my work experience as an accountant will be of benefit to the centre and the people that use it and I look forward to being involved in its work and activities.”
Andy Longford
Andy says –
“My wife Jill and I moved to Teignmouth in 2016 and discovered just what a vibrant and exciting community exists in this lovely seaside town. I discovered the Alice Cross through a group of like-minded individuals would meet there, to enjoy sharing musical talent. Musical activity is very much encouraged by the Alice Cross and is a hobby that I enjoy when not working in my own business as a technical engineering consultant. Becoming a trustee is something I felt would allow me to contribute to the ethos of the Alice Cross Centre, and hopefully let me give something back to the community in general.”
