The Team
Marnie Aston
Founder & CEO
My commitment and dedication to serving children, young-people and adults who may have experienced disharmony in their life, is born out of my passion to authentically listen. Enabling people to feel understood, valued and cared about matters to me. My hope is that I can be supportive to others journeying on the river of life, by offering love, compassion and strength to imagine and grow positive, balanced and healthy life’s. Wellbeing, Inclusion and Creativity are approaches I use with authenticity to empower myself and others to navigate this wonderful world.
Ray Lock
Financial Director
I am responsible for all the accounting and administrative functions with over forty years’ experience in the fields in senior managerial and director roles. Having retired from the full-time workplace over five years ago to pursue sociable pursuits this position enables me to keep my hand in and enhance my skills. More importantly it allows the freedom to our wonderful team to deal solely with delivering to Children, Young People, Parents and Teachers without being bogged down with tasks taking them away from their key roles and passion.
Stacy Gajewski
Senior Assistant Psychologist
I’m passionate about creating inclusive spaces where every child feels heard, valued, and empowered. With a deep commitment to pupil voice and creative approaches, I work alongside children, young people and families to better understand their world and help shape environments that truly support their growth. Whether it’s through consultation, assessment, or tailored interventions, my goal is always the same: to make sure young people are not just seen, but truly listened to.
Amy Punnett
Associate Assistant Psychologist
I’m dedicated to creating and supporting compassionate, inclusive spaces where every child feels heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I believe in the importance of young people’s voices and recognising behaviour as communication whilst using creative, flexible approaches to really connect with children, young people, and the adults around them. Whether it’s through systemic consultation, assessment, or tailored support, my focus is always on making sure young people feel genuinely listened to, while helping them to build their self-esteem, confidence, and independence – and celebrating their areas of strength and uniqueness.
