Spadework is an independent registered charity based in Kent, which enables its beneficiaries to achieve their potential.Adults with learning disabilities are typically isolated and are often held back from achieving their potential, becoming independent and having choice over their lives. At Spadework through participation in activities such as gardening, growing vegetables, cooking, woodwork and the performing arts, our service users (our trainees) are more independent, less isolated, and live happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.The charity, which has a five-acre site near West Malling, has an ambitious programme for development. I am hands-on in helping the team to achieve this. Post pandemic, Spadework extended its services to people living with dementia and those experiencing problems with their mental health.I develop and manage new and existing relationships with businesses, individuals and community groups with a focus on fundraising. I focus on increasing the profile and extending the reach of Spadework. I assist the CEO with special projects.
