Rebecca Turner 
Community & Music Performance Director 
TEACH Trust 

 
My name is Rebecca ‘Becs’ Turner. I have been a teacher for 22 years and currently work for TEACH Trust in Poole, as a Community and Music Performance Director. I am married and have three lovely children and a gorgeous pet Viszla called Monty. 

My father and godfather started the charity which was based at our ‘rest-bite’ centre in Worth Matravers many years ago. It has been wonderful to see the centre grow and transform into the fabulous charity that MYTIME is. I feel privileged to be working alongside this great team, helping to make such an impact for such a worthwhile cause.
