Activity and Volunteer Coordinator

About me

Susie joined Dementia Jersey in November 2021 and is no stranger to working with people and organising events.

Susie joined Dementia Jersey in November 2021 and is no stranger to working with people and organising events. Having worked with volunteers locally at Jersey Library and before that the Jersey Opera House, Susie was the Events Manager at HSBC. Susie and her family moved to Jersey in 2014 after having spent over 12 years working in the UK at Opera North Leeds.  Susie is CIPD qualified and passionate about working with people.

What I love about my job

My Dad (in the UK) was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in Spring 2020, so I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work at Dementia Jersey. I am a real people person and love meeting new people and organising engaging activities and events. I have loved expanding and developing the range and number of activities we offer to help make a difference to those living with Dementia in Jersey. However, working with all our wonderful volunteers and spreading a little bit of sparkle has to be the best part of my job.

Did you know

Susie lives with her two teenage boys and their cockapoo dog, Doris. She enjoys reading, crochet and going to open mics. When not in Jersey any spare weekends are spent in the UK visiting friends and going to shows. Susie has recently started sea swimming but is not convinced she is a convert just yet!
