Hi, I’m Dave, I joined the Bridge in June 2017 and I head up the Secondary Schools' Team. 
Previously I have worked in pastoral roles and more recently as Head of Year 7 in a local secondary school.
I am passionate about bringing positive change to young people in Salisbury through the schools that we are based in.
I am married and have 3 children. My hobbies include spending time with my family, football, cycling, music and supporting Aston Villa.


You can contact me by calling our office, or via email at: dave.luft@the-bridge.org.uk

Hello, I’m Sophie, I joined the Bridge in 2014 after working for a youth project in Bournemouth. I love my role of a Secondary Schools Worker. I get to meet so many different people through one to ones with students, leading lunchtime clubs, and the staff I work with. I have recently enjoyed the opportunity to write  'The Alice course', it has been great to see young girls engage and develop through this resource.

I'm married and have a beautiful daughter, I love having fun with them but also enjoy baking, getting outside and great conversation over a good cuppa!

 Hi, I’m Mel, I joined the Bridge in September 2017.
I have previously worked with children through my role as a family support worker.
I enjoy supporting children and seeing young people thrive.
I aim to bring something new to the team as a secondary schools worker, and I look forward to helping build a stronger bridge between The Church and the schools we work with.
I love hanging out with the family, walking my dog Jojo and travelling the world.

Hi, I’m Kate! I joined the Bridge in September 2016 to take over the role of Mentoring Coordinator. I love worshipping God, sharing the message of his great love for us all and I love that the Mentoring Scheme allows our fantastic volunteer mentors from local churches to make a difference to a young person's life. I love being a mum to my 3 gorgeous children, I enjoy dog walking, ballet and recently I've taken up rollerbooting!
