Hello, I'm Jane, a new Trustee for 2007. I'm married to Ian and live near Oxford with our two children, Rhys 9 and Molly 7 years old.

We first became involved with Reach when Molly was born with a left below elbow arm deficiency. Over the years we have gained invaluable support from Reach - information, advice and above all contact with other Reach children and families.

Having gained so much from Reach and really valuing it as an extremely worthwhile charity I now feel it is time to help and give something back, and look forward to the challenge of becoming a trustee. My background is in Health Visiting and Paediatric Clinical Research, I am particularly interested in raising awareness of Reach amongst health professionals including Maternity Unit Staff.
