Meet the team

Niks Kent - Head of South East Coast and London region

I lead the regional team across Kent, Sussex, Surrey and Greater London in our work in Health Systems and Engagement, Community and Volunteering Engagement, and the Together Type 1 programme. 

Silvia Sullivan - Engaging Communities Officer

I work with communities to reach and engage with people at risk of and living with diabetes. I work closely with volunteers and community organisation to tackle inequalities and stigma by raising awareness of diabetes and the available support. My focus is particularly on Black African, Black Caribbean, and South Asian communities as well as those living in deprivation. 

Charlotte Gravett - Communities and Volunteering Manager

I lead our work in community engagement, volunteering, and our youth programme, Together Type 1, ensuring everything we do aligns with Diabetes UK's mission to create a world where diabetes does no harm. I work closely with people living with diabetes, volunteers, and partner organisation to co-create opportunities for collaboration and change. I'm passionate about empowering individuals and communities, helping them build on their own strengths, support one another, and drive meaningful impact. 

Imogen Downing - Community Fundraising Manager              

I support people and groups across the region to raise money for Diabetes UK's vital work. From bake sales and quiz nights to fitness challenges and race days, it's my job to make sure people have all the information and support they need to raise lots of money and have a great time doing it.  

Clarrissa Morrill - Volunteer Outreach and Partnerships Officer

I am the first point of contact for our Regional Volunteers and for our Diabetes Workplace Ambassadors. I help to recruit and train new volunteers together with training and managing our existing volunteers across the region. 

Emma-Jane Stapleton - Youth Worker

I work as part of the national Together Type 1 project, supporting young people aged 11 to 25 who are living with type 1 diabetes. My role focuses on running and developing our youth programme - empowering Young Leaders and creating a safe, welcoming space where young people can connect, build confidence, and grow their skills. 

Vicki White - Healthcare Engagement & Systems Change Manager

I work with the NHS and other organisations to influence and support improvements in diabetes care across the region. I focus on reducing variation in care provision and outcomes, to improve the lives of people living with and at risk of diabetes locally.  

Rosie Newton - Youth Coordinator

I lead the delivery of the Together Type 1 youth project across the region, working closely with our youth worker, Emma-Jane. My role involves recruiting and supporting a team of young people to provide peer support for others living with type 1 diabetes. Together, we co-create a vibrant programme of virtual and in-person events, collaborate with healthcare professionals, and design impactful social media content - all aimed at improving the health and wellbeing of young people with type 1 diabetes.
