Who We Are

Lifeshare’s staff all have a deep dedication to helping people who are homeless, vulnerable or marginalised.

• Jimmy is Lifeshare’s Respite Coordinator. He manages our wonderful breakfast volunteers and makes sure our clients all receive a hot breakfast each weekend morning. He also coordinates our new Friday Breakfast offering as part of Greater Manchester’s homelessness reduction strategy. Once a year Jimmy manages the Christmas Project. He runs the week-long provision – coordinating volunteers, doctors, nurses, hairdressers, entertainment, and more to ensure all have a fantastic Christmas.
• Deb is Lifeshare’s Volunteer Coordinator. She supports the entire volunteer team and organises training, placements and communications. She’s also a dab hand at cooking breakfast and can be regularly found in the kitchen at Respite sessions.
• David is Lifeshare’s Office Manager. He oversees office operations, financial management, and administrative support, and is the primary point of contact for Lifeshare via phone and email. He also contributes to newsletters and reports for partners and volunteers.

Lifeshare’s activities are overseen by a board of trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company):

• Matthew Johnson – Chair of the Board of Trustees
• Jahan Hussain – Treasurer
• Lisa Watson
• Jane Carroll
• Maya Ravindran
