Our President, Vice Presidents and Patrons

Pam Thompson

Role: Honorary President

Special Interests: Disability Awareness Day, Fundraising and Community Engagement and Caravans

About Pam Thompson:
Pam is married to our founder and Chief Executive Dave Thompson. Although Alan, Eric and Dave are accredited with being the founders of WDP, Pam worked tirelessly in supporting the guys; often acting as driver and supporter attending meetings, undertaking access audits and training, plus anything else that was needed. Today Pam is a member of the DAD Management Team and a regular supporter of fundraising events. At our 21st Anniversary meeting the Board of Trustees presented Pam with the title of Honorary President in recognition for her continuing commitment to WDP, DAD and DTC. Pam’s proudest moment was having a one to one conversation with Her Majesty the Queen, when Dave and Pam were invited to Buckingham Palace as part of the Queens Award for Voluntary Services celebrations.
