Nick worked throughout his career in the NHS looking after children with heart conditions.   After his retirement he moved to East Lothian with his wife to be near family. 

He volunteers with DACYP particularly with the Lads’ Group and Life Walks.

He is now also the

Chair of Trustees. 

Alongside bringing up our two daughters and supporting their families, my experience in employed and voluntary work is wide ranging.  For many years, I worked in investment management before joining my husband in establishing our private hearing healthcare practice. 

My  involvement with various charities has included Dunbar's RNLI Shop Manager & Volunteer Co-ordinator, Spott Community Association Committee, Chair of Friends of The Byre Theatre (St Andrews), and, for those with very long memories, The Tufty Club. 

I have been a Church of Scotland Elder for almost 40 years, including several years as Session Clerk and assisting with Sunday School leadership.  I continue to be involved with our local church, and recently joined Dunbar Debt Advice Service as a volunteer adviser. 

Professionally I served as an administrator for 45 years with Scouting; the last 8 as
Assistant Secretary at Scottish level. The previous 37 years I served as Secretary for the Edinburgh Area and latterly for South East Scotland Scout Council, focusing on ensuring effective administration at all levels and making sure that changing
legislation was covered correctly.
I have also served as a Trustee for a youth work project and for a church charity.

I am keen to support DACYP by helping it to plan its administration effectively.

I've been involved with DACYP since the beginning and am currently a Trustee as well as helping with Harbour Lights Xtra.

I think it's important that young people have exposure to the Christian faith and it's values being lived out in the community.

I am a retired statistician whose roles now include grandparent, preacher (Reader at Dunbar Parish Church), treasurer for Sustaining Dunbar, trustee of the Crunchy Carrot, hillwalker, and refugee support group volunteer.  I'm delighted to support DACYP in its mission to bring the light of Jesus into the lives of young people growing up in our increasingly post-Christian society.
