Meet the Co-Founders & Trustees

Sophie Armitt – Co-Founder & Trustee

Hi! I’m Sophie and I’m 25 years old. I’m one of the co-founders of MaccPride and currently a Trustee for the charity. As a Trustee I am responsible to ensure that the aims and objectives of the charity are met and in line with the Charity Commission. During the MaccPride event I am usually escorting vehicles through the square to ensure everyone is safe whilst stalls set up. You may catch me having a little boogie whilst doing so.  I’m a huge gaming nerd and love all things Marvel related.

Andrew Angus-Whiteoak- Trustee

I live on a narrowboat which was moored in Macclesfield over the lock-down years and have travelled the Cheshire Ring to a few places since, currently moored in Tameside. I was amazed by how open and progressive Macclesfield is, and have been a part of TRANSCEND from the start. I’ve exhibited paintings at MaccPride for the past couple of years. As part of my role at the University of Manchester I sit on the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion steering committee for the School of Biological Science, where I am active in organising training and talks highlighting the needs of staff across each protected characteristic. I enjoy table-top role-playing games, life drawing and art groups and days out involving steam and diesel trains and stationary engines.
