From Jacky Oliver, CEO

As I celebrate my 66 birthday in January I have decided it would be a good time for me to say goodbye to my role as Chief Executive of Through the Roof. I have been working with the charity since 2002 and have felt privileged to work with a fantastic team of people, all committed to working alongside disabled people as they reach their full potential in every sphere of life.

There has been laughter and tears. We have seen God’s hand move in many miraculous ways guiding the work and I step aside from the leadership role knowing that the charity is in a very healthy position. I am delighted to announce that our Development Manager Tim Wood is taking on the role of Chief Executive from February. I have every confidence in his heart for God and his vision to take Through the Roof forward.

The Board has requested that I be retained as a non-executive director in a part-time capacity to provide some mentoring for Tim, so I will still be involved on the sideline for a period of time.  I believe this will be a new exciting phase for the charity with a younger leadership to move forward to the future God-given direction.
