Meet the board

The Camden Society has a board who are locally accountable and responsive to the needs of the people we support and our staff teams.

Ben Lanes

Managing Director

Ben has worked with people with a learning disability for over 25 years. He is passionate about delivering great support, and he is very proud to have led teams that have been rated as Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission in his previous role.

Kay Reeve

Chair

Kay has worked in adult social care (and sometimes in health) for the last 20 years and has a particular interest in supporting adults with a learning disability and/or Autism. As a self employed worker, Kay covers a variety of roles, working in different organisations, which makes life really interesting! Kay lives in Wiltshire with her family and Rex the dog! Having not found life in formal education very engaging, Kay isn’t formally qualified in very much at all but by giving lots of types of work a go has been lucky to find work that she loves! Kay has recently taken up learning to play the piano and is looking forward to playing “Jingle Bells” in her first concert in December 2023. Kay hopes that her work and life experience will help to make a meaningful contribution to The Camden Society in her role as a Non Executive Director.

Adrian Jarvis

Non-Executive Director

Adrian brings 35 years of business leadership experience to the board. He received his MBA from Nottingham Trent University and worked in the UK and US energy sectors in a variety of senior positions. He held responsibilities for establishing new companies, setting direction and operational development for long term, sustainable success. With family members who have a learning disability, he is keen to use his understanding and experience to help all the people we support to live the life they choose.
