	Karen Dursley Karen joined our Trustee Board in March 2022 having retired as an Office and Personnel Manager in the education sector. Prior to that Karen enjoyed a 34 year career at DAS Group that spanned Finance, Corporate Social Responsibility, Property and Facilities Management. Karen holds a number of trustee positions that include being Chair of a primary school in a Multi Academy Trust as well as Chair of Resources and Audit in a Single Academy Trust.

	Pete Truss Peter has been an All Aboard Volunteer since 2017, discovering the opportunity to provide his disabled daughter sailing experience on a regular basis in a safe and supported environment through AAW’s Sailability programme. Having developed expertise and practical knowledge in manual handling, hoisting and associated regulations, Peter is a qualified trainer in this area for All Aboard’s volunteers. Peter became a Trustee in the Spring of 2024, having recently retired from a lifetime working in the international space industry and has many years of practical dinghy sailing experience through membership of local sailing clubs. Within the Trustees Peter is particularly focused on volunteering, safety and safeguarding issues
	Steve Weeks Steve Weeks began volunteering at All-Aboard in 2016 after retiring from the Energy Industry. During his career he gained skills in auditing, health and safety, Human Resources and the strategic approach and delivery of small and large projects. Steve is now Chair of Governors at a secondary school in Bristol and Chair of a vibrant Scout Group consisting of around 100 young people. Steve’s skills, his position within the education system and his understanding of what it is like to volunteer for All-Aboard is incredibly useful to our charity and will help us greatly.
