Our leadership team

These are our people who lead the planning and delivery of our work – that you’ll most likely see at our HQ or on the road.

Fiona Davison-Trickett
Fiona is our Delivery Co-ordinator. She runs most of our digital drop-in sessions, as well as our after-school sessions for young people. She is very patient even with the most troublesome technology, and currently leads the delivery of our device repurposing scheme.

 

Chris Moth
Chris is our Infrastructure Co-ordinator. He ensures all of our devices, network equipment, and web hosting all runs smoothly – and loves to tinker with new bits of kit! He also runs some of our digital drop-in sessions and advises on the process for our device repurposing scheme.

 

Sam Weller
Sam is an electronics consultant with 30 years aerospace experience. His ‘Senior Elf’ duties include electronics, coding, prototyping and making. Occasionally asks annoying (but useful) questions!

 

 

 

The directors and the senior team are given brilliant support by the regular Elven Hoarde – Coza, Lia, Luke, Monty, Sam(B) and Tyler together with work experience students and volunteers.
