Trustees

We’re lucky to have the support of our Trustees who give their time freely to help with the smooth running of the charity. Our Trustees come from different backgrounds and bring a wealth of experience to Stockdales. We’re proud to count on people from business, health and social care and education to help guide us. Take a look below at our Trustee profiles to find out more about them and how they help us.

Why do they do it?

“I’m proud to be Chair of Trustees of a charity that always recognises ability not disability. I’m fortunate to have time to give back to the local community to help support and impact the lives of so many deserving people.”

Nigel Mather, Chair of the Trustees 

“I bring my healthcare knowledge and experience to explore new approaches to better meet the needs of the Stockdales residents. I’m very proud to have the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of those who call Stockdales ‘home’.”

Monika Kosek-Boyes, Trustee
