Lincolnshire Action Trust Welcomes Three New Trustees

Lincolnshire Action Trust (LAT) has strengthened its Board of Management with the appointment of three new trustees.

Nicoya Palastanga, David Libiszewski and Daniel Callaghan all bring a wealth of experience and have each been appointed to take the lead on different services that the charity provides.

Lincolnshire Action Trust offers a variety of support services to help people in the criminal justice system and their families, including everything from health and well-being services to accommodation and employment advice.

Jo Mead, Chair of LAT, said: “We’ve brought the new trustees on board to enhance our governance which will allow us to continue to build on the work we carry out to support individuals in the criminal justice system.”

Nicoya previously worked as a Partnership Manager at West Lindsey District Council, working largely on welfare reform issues. She will be using this experience in her new role to assist the charity with its training, development and advice services.

Daniel, a primary school head teacher, is familiar with the issues around safeguarding children and young people which is a fundamental part of LAT’s Young Oasis project – a service which supports children and young people from all backgrounds who are affected by the substance use of a family member.

Daniel said: “It is a privilege to be joining the board of trustees at the Lincolnshire Action Trust at such an exciting time in its evolution.

“Having spent a large part of my career thus far supporting vulnerable children and families, I’m looking forward to utilising my experience to work with the charity’s dynamic team to deliver an essential service, based on unconditional positive regard, to the people of Lincolnshire and beyond.”
