Meet our Directors
Our directors ensure that Air Time CIC meets statutory obligations and works to achieve objectives
Jo Woodhams
Director
With a background in youth and community work and a strong track record in teaching and training, I'm a dedicated nature-based wellbeing practitioner with 19 years’ experience in the mental health field.
Driven by a passion for inclusion, I advocate for equitable access to nature and create opportunities that promote both individual wellbeing and environmental stewardship. Empathy, personal insight, and professional knowledge are at the core of my multi-disciplinary approach.
As an accredited Mental Health First Aid trainer since 2019, I have delivered impactful training to hundreds of individuals, both face-to-face and online. Personal lived experience and real-life examples make the training both relevant and engaging.
Andrew Beales
Director
I am currently retraining as a psychotherapeutic counsellor, having spent the last 10 years working in occupational safety and health. I believe that everybody should have access to high-quality, open-ended and low-cost counselling. I have also seen how facilitating nature and nature-based activities, which include learning new skills and forming new relationships, can improve mental health and wellbeing.
Air Time grew out of a shared passion, held by the founding Directors, that good mental health, wellbeing and meaningful and beneficial time spent in natural spaces should be accessible for everybody.
Being both a Director of, and working for, Air Time will give me the opportunity to provide psychotherapeutic counselling services to more people than I could working independently in private practice.
I'm excited about the potential of Air Time to be part of a solution that tackles health inequalities at a community level.
Jason Savin
Director
I have over 25 years experience working with people in a variety of roles, particularly with young people, supporting community development and promoting mental health. I am passionate about supporting those people that are often most marginalised and under valued in our society and working to promote communication and connection within our communities.
Within my own life I have experienced being 'other' and this has particularly influenced my desire to get involved with Airtime. Authenticity and awareness are always central to my person-centred way of working with people. I am excited to have the opportunity to combine this with my love of the outdoors and knowledge of how valuable time spent outside can be for people's wellbeing through my role with Air Time.
