About MeWendy Jordon
Interim Office Manager
My name is Wendy, and I’ve worked at Lofty Heights CIC since August 2020 as an Accounts Assistant. In that time, I like to think that I’ve applied the ‘Lofty Heights’ treatment to the internal accounting process by introducing QuickBooks and other new processes.
About MeKelly Murphy
Operations Assistant
I have only just started with Lofty Heights but I received a very warm and friendly welcome. I am very much enjoying it here and am looking forward to the future.
About MeDavid Olding
Workforce Manager
I’ve worked with Lofty Heights CIC from the start before we even had the first of what would turn into hundreds of jobs. I was appointed team leader in 2016, and I’ve got to say, I thoroughly enjoy my job. The best part about it, without a doubt, is that we change lives on a daily basis.
About MeClive Reed
Declutter operative
As soon as I joined Lofty Heights as a driver operative, I immediately noticed just how close-knit the team is. Quite honestly, I’d struggle to think of a more rewarding role than driving around Suffolk helping vulnerable people to live safely in their own homes. Every day is different!
About MeDaniel Scott
Declutter Operative
Although, at the time of writing, I hadn’t been at Lofty Heights very long (I joined in April 2021), I must say that the training has been fantastic. Immediately, I was paired with a more experienced team member and I can already see this being a role that I will enjoy for many years to come.
About MeMark Wilding
Declutter Operative
As a handyperson and cleaning operative, it’s fair to say that no two days are the same at Lofty Heights. I am so glad that I joined. When people ask me what I do, I am proud to say that I am part of a team that provides much-needed support to the local community.

Curtis Beadle
Digital Information Officer
I joined Lofty Heights in 2018 with the help of Talentmatch who helped me with my anxiety and depression, something that i will always struggle with. I've done many things here, started in the warehouse then moved to tech support then to photographer and social media. No day is the same and it really is a pleasure to work here.
About Me
Directors
Olive Quinton
Founder
I set up Lofty Heights CIC in 2012 to enable people to live safely, securely and healthily in their homes and provide employment and training opportunities to young people in Suffolk. I couldn’t be prouder of the team and the strides we’ve made in delivering on this promise.
About MeRob Hart
General Manager and Non-Executive Director
My business background is in construction. When I first met Olive, I was her business mentor. I became immersed in Lofty Heights and its mission to help young and vulnerable people. When I was offered the role of Non-Executive Director in 2016 and then General Manager in 2019, I had to accept.
About MeStephen Taylor
Director
I have been involved in Lofty Heights since I met Olive at the School for Social Entrepreneurs in 2011, thought her idea to employ and train young people to provide a much-needed decluttering service was brilliant, and was invited to become a founding director. I’ve never regretted the decision to be a part of such an inspirational organisation. I am a team leader in the Environment Agency, having previously worked in and with libraries for almost thirty years, before changing careers. I’m also vice-chair of the RSPCA Suffolk Central branch, and a trustee and board member of Eastern Angles theatre company.
