Glyn Shaw

David Gray
I am a Dad and Grandad. I live in Prudhoe where I lead a Church and get involved in community events. I like music, especially Bob Dylan, Blues, Folk and Jazz. My wife Sheila and I like to go walking in Northumberland and visiting new places.
20 years ago I was one of the people who set up New Beginnings (you might see me at the office) so the Ngage Action Group is important to me and I would love to meet you at one of the Ngage events.
Rachel Spencer
I am a mum of two very active boys which keeps me on my toes. When I’m not running around after them, I run a toddler group at the Church and enjoy reading, frequenting coffee shops with friends and playing the piano. I also have a dog and four hens to keep me busy.
​
I studied for my degree in Social Work and Welfare Studies before joining New Beginnings and then Ngage.
