Liz Grugeon
I was born in Reading and have lived here all my life. My grandmother lived in Cressingham Road, so I have a connection to the area. I worked for over twenty years in the legal department of Berkshire County Council and was an active member of Nalgo, now UNISON.
Since I retired I have become involved with WCDA's work; every day I learn something new and meet someone interesting. Whitley is a great place with great residents and I'm privileged to be among them.
Margaret Cobb
I'm a local resident and immigrant with a lifetime interest in community development and social democracy. My particular area of interest within WCDA is the Whitley Community Museum.
Since March 2020, Marg is WCDA's secretary.
Kerry Reilly-West
I was born in Reading and moved to Whitley nearly 30 years ago. I have chosen to live here and with my family, as the people and community spirit is unique and is what makes it special. I am passionate the work of WCDA and would like my professional skills and interests to support the fantastic work already being undertaken. I am honoured to be a Trustee and look forward to what the future brings for this amazing charity.
