Karen Turner
Chair of Trustees
I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve as a Trustee with the Marches Family Network in Herefordshire, UK. In this role, I aim to share the varied experiences and skills I’ve accumulated over the years. As a Chartered Member of the CIPD, I believe in the importance of creating inclusive environments for individuals and the provision of appropriate support services for families raising children through what can often be an exhausting, emotional and isolating journey.
My career has been varied and interesting as an HR professional, Business Director, and latterly Neuro-Coach and Wellbeing Practitioner. I have gained diverse experience and a broad perspective in various sectors including transport, hospitality, technology, oil and gas and child development. I have first-hand experience of the challenges and opportunities that individuals and families face in the world of neurodiversity. In my spare time, I support pregnant women who have suffered discrimination, through employment tribunals My interest in neurodiversity is very much a personal one, motivated by my own experiences and a genuine hope to foster greater understanding and acceptance in our communities. This personal commitment, alongside my professional background, guides my contributions to the Marches Family Network, where I hope to make even a small difference in the community we serve
