Nick Farmer is our Chief Operating Officer. He provides leadership and direction across all operational services, ensuring the provision of day-to-day safe, high quality, person-centred care and support. Nick leads our Development and Fundraising team to ensure Making Space's direction aligns with our 2020-24 Strategic Plan and beyond.
Prior to joining Making Space, Nick has held Non Executive Director roles at Warrington Housing Association and Urgent Health UK, as well as serving as a magistrate for over six years. He is also a Chairman and Trustee of a charitable health and social care organisation in the Wirral.
Nick has undertaken a range of qualifications including Registered Nurse, an NVQ Level 5 in Management, an MBA, an MA in Management and a Masters in Professional Practice.

When we asked Nick why he wanted to join Making Space, Nick said: "I have a passion for improving the lives of vulnerable people and in providing quality services. I believe my values and behaviours are a good alignment with Making Space's five co-produced values".
"The biggest influence on my life was my father. He was a thoughtful, compassionate and patient person, always putting others first. I strive to maintain those principles in my everyday life and work".
