Trustees

I currently work as an Educational Psychologist in Worcestershire. I have previously worked as an Educational Psychologist across the West Midlands, and as a primary school teacher and SENCo. I have been really impressed by the care, enthusiasm and dedication that the mentors at Mentor Link show to the young people they work with, and believe that the relationships they develop are both supportive and powerful for the young people involved.

Peter is a former business owner with a broad knowledge of property, HR, sales & marketing and business finance. He spent nearly 20 years as part of the senior management team in a FTSE 100 organisation, where he developed sound operational skills in the aforementioned areas. Now Peter is retired he is keen to help Mentor Link raise their overall profile so the charity can provide even more support to help young people achieve positive change.

I currently work as a SEND and Additional Needs Officer in Dudley, supporting mainstream schools in meeting the needs of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). My previous roles include working as a special school teacher in Worcestershire, as well as a primary school teacher and SENCo in Birmingham.

As a local resident, I have followed Mentor Link’s journey for many years. I believe that now, more than ever, the charity plays a vital role in supporting the social, emotional, and mental health needs of children and young people. I am proud to contribute to such a valuable and much-needed service.
