Meet Our Team

Staff

Nicola Craven

Project Manager

Nicola started working with us in November 2017.  After working in the NHS, she changed career after completing a postgraduate diploma in Environmental Decision Making in 2009.

Nicola has gained experience on a variety of projects, for both the RSPB and Woodland Trust, across the UK.  With the opportunity to work and make a difference closer to home, she is looking forward to helping the team improve Lincolnshire’s rivers for people and wildlife.

Her role includes working with partners and landowners to develop river restoration opportunities and also the fundraising to deliver them.

After graduating from the University of Lincoln in 2005 with a degree in Conservation Biology (Animal Behaviour), Gail has spent the last 13 years both working and volunteering for conservation charities including the Wildlife Trusts and the RSPB.

Ranging from Environmental Education to Project Management, Gail is very excited to bring her skills and experience to the Lincolnshire Rivers Trust where she will be working to inspire and engage local communities and schools with projects to protect, enhance and restore Lincolnshire’s waterways as well as getting stuck in with the amazing volunteer team.

Trustees

Dr Lauren Vickers

Non-Executive Chair

After graduating from the University of Hull in 2007 with a 2:1 (Honours) in BSc Aquatic Zoology, Lauren furthered her knowlege by accepting a PhD in Fisheries Science at Hull International Fisheries Institute with a project funded by the Environment Agency (EA).  Her thesis focused on the feeding ecology of 0+ fishes, particularly roach, bream and perch, working on rivers in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.

She then worked as an Environmental Monitoring Officer for the EA in Anglian Northern area, regularly writing reports on the state of fish populations within Lincolnshire rivers and carrying out routine fish and macrophyte surveys.  Lauren now works as a Senior Aquatic Ecologist as AECOM, advising on anything relating to the freshwater environment.

Reuben Page

Director/Trustee

Born and raised in Lincolnshire, Reuben spent most of his formative childhood exploring the fenland watercourses and rivers of our County, forging what has proved to be a lifelong fascination with the natural environment.  As a young angler, Reuben spent many happy seasons fishing the local drains and rivers and soon established a local reputation as a pike angler, an aspect of the sport he is still passionate about today.

After graduating from Sparsholt College in Hampshire, Reuben spent time working on a number of fish farms before securing a position as a Fisheries Officer with the NRA, and continued serving within the Environment Agency’s Fisheries Function in various roles until 2012 when he departed to pursure his own Fisheries Consultancy business, working not just within Lincolnshire, but all over the UK.

Dr Jon Bollond

Director/Trustee

Born in Boston, Jon grew up fishing Lincolnshire rivers and drains with family, friends or in competitions.  His love and enthusiasm for rivers and fish led him to studying freshwater fisheries at The University of Hull, where he now works full time, investigating the conservation and rehabilitation of UK rivers and fish populations.

Being a Trustee of the Lincolnshire Rivers Trust provides Jon with the opportunity to give something back to the rivers where it all began, so that future generations can enjoy them as he once did.

Andrew Morriss

Director/Trustee

Andrew moved to Lincolnshire more than 30 years ago and has enjoyed the privilege of living in a county where farming, rivers and hills provide a welcome contrast to his career managing international manufacturing companies. He is still active in education and local government. 

Andrew brings experience of project management, engineering, finance and governance to the Lincolnshire Rivers Trust through his role as a Trustee. He welcomes the opportunity to contribute to maintaining and enhancing the rivers and waterways of Lincolnshire which are so important to the natural world and the wider community.

He is the owner of Leading Green, a strategy consultancy helping organisations align their sustainability strategy with business strategy, to ensure the design, delivery and operation of sustainable infrastructure and assets.

Terry Williams

Director/Trustee

Terry joined the Board of Trustees in January 2015.  He is a recently retired Environmental Lawyer who originally worked for Anglian Water before becoming Head of Legal Services for the Anglian Region of the NRA (now Environment Agency).  He left the Regulator in the early 1990’s to establish his own independent Law Firm, where he specialised in all aspects of Water Legislation in particular Water Resources and Flood Defence.  He is the author of several specialist legal textbooks.
