Farewell to our Chief Executive

Penderels Trust said farewell to Jackie Wakelin, Chief Executive Officer, on Thursday 29th March who retired after being involved with the organisation since it began, 30 years ago.

Jackie´s friends and colleagues, including some old faces, wished her all the best at an afternoon tea (with a “This is Your Life” presentation) at the head office.

Gary Jones, who was previously our Director of Operations, has been appointed to the role.
