Our Trustees

Intro: I am involved in Morgan’s Army to ensure Morgan’s legacy lives on and that his memory continues to be honoured through the work of the charity.

Background & Experience: I currently work as the Area Administrator for the Llwchwr Ministry Area within the Church in Wales. Before this, I was a licensee for over 30 years, managing teams, organising staff, and overseeing busy establishments. These roles gave me valuable experience in leadership, organisation, and working with people, which I now bring to my role as a trustee.

Why Morgan’s Army: Morgan was my beloved grandson, and it is an honour to work alongside the other trustees to ensure his legacy continues to grow. I am passionate about fundraising and enjoy supporting and taking part in the events organised in Morgan’s name. I have even been inspired to run half marathons and climb mountains in his memory.

Outside Morgan’s Army: I am the mother of four and enjoy socialising, travelling, running and occasionally going to the gym.

Intro: I am a committed trustee with a strong background in people-focused roles, community engagement, and fundraising.

Background & Experience: Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of customer-facing and community-based roles where communication, organisation and relationship building have been central. I have also been actively involved in fundraising, event support and networking through organisations such as BNI, helping to raise awareness and vital funds for charitable causes.

Why Morgan’s Army: I first met Morgan and the Ridler family while working as their post lady for Royal Mail, and we quickly became close friends. Through that connection, I saw firsthand the challenges faced by families affected by childhood cancer and the importance of compassionate, practical support. Morgan’s Army represents hope, strength and kindness, and I am proud to be involved in helping families feel they are not alone.

Outside Morgan’s Army: I am married with two sons and enjoy spending time with my family. I also have a passion for cooking and baking, and have recently discovered a love for swimming.
