Debra was a much valued staff member for 10 years and was loved by everyone who knew her. Debra was infectious with her enthusiasm and care for the people she worked with, often putting others first in her quest to offer the best of activities for members. She was an advocate for women’s work and that passion came through every day of her working life. Not only a fantastic development worker Debra had a flair for fundraising, writing numerous funding bids she raised thousands of pounds for Alington House, indeed we would not have survived without her dedication and utter determination to succeed. Unknown to some Debra was an excellent trainer, she devised a training programme for volunteers which was accredited by One Awards. Students enjoyed her way of teaching which was both inventive and fun. There is no doubt Debra was an exceptional worker and woman, we will really miss her and we offer our condolences to her family.
