John worked in banking for 26 years in various roles and at various branches in Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire. He then worked at Lincolnshire County Council for 11 years in the Organisational Development Team. This was a corporate role involving organisational change, learning and development, customer experience management, business planning and change management. John took early retirement in 2014, and then spent a year doing some consultancy work, before joining the Every-One Board in October 2016.

Through his work at Lincolnshire County Council, John experienced the amazing contribution made by the many unpaid Carers in the county, and helping to care for parents living into their 90s helped him to empathise with those who look after relatives.

It was Every-One’s mission of being committed to providing support to carers and the people they care for that inspired John to get involved.
