Meet the Board

They guide and support our mission with insight from diverse professional backgrounds, ranging from finance and healthcare to digital innovation and social enterprise.

Graeme is a chartered accountant who has recently retired from being senior partner in G L Barker & Co LLP. He is married to Sally-Anne and lives in Yeadon. In his spare time he is Chairman of the Leeds Modernians Rugby Club and Chairman of the Members Representative Group  for YCCC. You are more likely to see Graeme with a calculator in his hand than a paint brush!

Jim works in risk management for the NHS, he is a qualified Paramedic, a H&S professional, a chartered manager, and a guitarist in a punk band. Away from work he enjoys gardening, half finishing projects, good coffee and trying to entertain his four children.

Liam runs a Digital Transformation business following 10 years leading Sky’s digital transformation. Whilst he actively avoids DIY and decorating, he’s joined the board to support with sales and digital growth whilst also playing a part in shaping our future. He’s seen first-hand the amazing work we do for our people and the planet and is keen to see how that same passion and care can be brought into the corporate world.

Meg’s career has spanned the corporate and social enterprise sectors, and industries including management consultancy, finance, textiles and supported housing. She currently works with a range of businesses focusing on improving business operation efficiencies. An enthusiastic decorator, but with still much to learn, she is excited to work with the fantastic team as they continue their journey to support and bring joy to an ever-increasing Seagulls community.

Donations help us carry on the valuable work we do and we appreciate any amount that you’re able to give. If you’d like to support us in another way, come roll up your sleeves and consider volunteering.
