Trustee I am Will, one of the trustees at you raise me up. I have joined the team as I believe deeply in the work the charity does and the support it has given to the local community. I look forward to helping the charity on its journey to continuing to provide this vital service. On a normal day I am a Fire fighter at Horsham fire station and busy running my local training business - Mantra Training.
Natalie
Trustee I am delighted to return to my role as Trustee of YRMU and I am grateful to the board and staff for welcoming me back. The charity is extremely close to my heart, having been founded by my sister Jane and her husband Fraser in memory of my niece Megan, who tragically passed away at the age of 17. I was in awe as I watched Jane navigate her way through her own grief, whilst helping and supporting others as they started theirs. There were many times I would ask her how she did it, knowing her broken heart was unfixable after losing Meg. I feel honoured to be back with YRMU to help continue Jane and Megan's legacy, and to keep their memory and all of our loved ones shining bright.
