Heather Cape
Chair of Trustees
I joined the Mustard Tree board of trustees in 2017 having been so impressed as the Headteacher of a local school with the work the team did to develop awareness of the Christian faith and sow the seeds of God's love. Following my retirement from Headship with a change of career into the world of Child and Adolescent psychotherapy, I took on the role of Chair of Mustard Tree Trust in September 2023. I am passionate about the work we do and the commitment of the trustees and workers to plant the seeds of faith in our children and teenagers across our local schools

I'm a primary school teacher and have taught at St Robert's Catholic First School in Morpeth for the last 12 years. Prior to moving back North I trained in Leeds and worked in Central London, Hertfordshire and Gloucestershire. I have lived in Morpeth for the past 25 years. I was born and brought up near Rothbury on a farm and am a very proud Northumbrian! I am married with 3 grown up boys.
