Jill Fletcher was a director at WB Baxter Insurance brokers for 20 of her 38 years of employment and spent her career covering all aspects of insurance along with managerial responsibilities and training.
At 60 it seemed the right time to retire and use the opportunity to give something back. Jill has been teaching older people to play bridge creating a warm and friendly environment to meet new people, make friends and learn a new skill that helps to keep their brains ticking over into later life. Jill plays bridge competitively and enjoys walking 30 miles a week with a passion for studying Art History and cooking.
Jill has previous experience as a Trustee having joined Age UK Essex becoming Deputy Chair in 2018 until its closure in March 2022.
Jill is excited to bring her enthusiasm, compassion and skills to the charity and support unpaid family carers.
