Danie Reeves
Dementia Support Worker
I first started my career with Dementia Support South Lincs on a voluntary basis in 2013 whilst studying Health and Social Care at the University of Lincoln. On graduating in 2014 I came on board the Dementia Support team.
I have gained so much knowledge during my time and had some fantastic experiences, which I know will only continue.

Lindsay Ford
Dementia Support Worker
I’m Lindsay and am delighted to be working with Dementia Support South Lincs. I have attended several of their coffee mornings and sing-alongs over the years, with some of my clients who I have cared for and always been in awe of their work and the support they offer.
I was born and bred in Stamford and was one of Evergreen Trust’s original Angels, before going on to be a Self Employed Carer, supporting clients with their individual needs including Dementia and End of Life care. My aim has always been to try and come away from any of my visits leaving clients with a smile on their face.
Trustees

Jill Bemrose
Treasurer
In 2017 I retired from my role in finance and moved to Stamford. I wanted to be involved with a charity and heard about Dementia Support South Lincs. As my mother had dementia in her later years Dementia Support South Lincs was the obvious choice.
As a Trustee I will promote the aims of the charity and work to continue the excellent services provided.

Sarah Westwood
Chair and Legal Advisor
Sarah has been a Trustee for three years, having been involved with Dementia Support South Lincs for seven years.
As a solicitor with over a decade of experience of dealing with clients with dementia, Sarah is able to combine her assistance as a Trustee for Dementia Support South Lincs with vital advice about protecting what’s important to you both in terms of family and money.

Kay Bunn
Trustee
Kay discovered Kate Marshall and Dementia Support South Lincs. when her partner was first diagnosed with vascular dementia. Involved from its inception Kay found the Square Hole Club to be a lifeline.
Now a Trustee, Kay has found supporting this important charity satisfying and forging new friendships has become like a second family. She is pleased to be involved in nurturing its future.

Hazel Cox
Trustee
I was involved with Dementia Support South Lincolnshire in its early years. Prior to that I worked for many years for RNIB as a music braillist, having studied at The Royal Academy of Music.
My mother is living with dementia and is in a local care home. I am now retired and, because of Mum, wanted to give a little back to support others.
This is my second stint as a Trustee.

Linda Rogers
Trustee
Having worked in the charity sector for nearly 20 years Linda decided she wanted to get involved with Dementia Support South Lincs. as a trustee because she has seen her mother suffer with dementia for many years.
Having heard about how the charity helps not only those with the disease but also those closest to them, Linda hopes her experience of events and fundraising will help Dementia Support South Lincs. continue its work now and into the future.
