The Travers Foundation, a local Northamptonshire-based charity which helps 13 to 30 year olds living in Northamptonshire, Rutland or Leicestershire improve their skills in sports, the creative arts and the performing arts, has appointed a new Trustee.
John Leslie, a project manager, joins the team which includes local businessman and foundation founder Terry Forsey and athlete William Sharman.
John has previously been a member of the Round Table movement, and has acted as local fundraising chairman.
John has already been helping the Travers Foundation in organizing the 'Dance Around Your Handbags' retro disco fundraisers in 2013 and 2014, the 'Rock'n'Roll with Laughter' music and comedy show in 2013 and the Jive Honey concert at Gretton Music Festival in 2014.
Terry Forsey said: "I would like to extend a warm welcome to John and we're happy to have him on-board as a Trustee of the Travers Foundation. His skills as a project manager are just what we need to help us organize the vital fund-raising events we run throughout the year. We're very much looking forward to continuing to work with him."
