There is something a little bit special about the OKE Squad, made up of a passionate bunch who are motivated to enrich the lives of the local community…whilst having lots of fun.

Founder aka Chief Go Getter

Paul Dickson

Paul came up with the crazy idea of creating the #H2HWalk back in 2012. After the successes of the fundraiser, he decided to do things a little bit backward and then create the OKE Charity. The daily tasks required to run OKE are carried out by Paul…when he’s not on Daddy Daycare duty!

KAOS (Kick Ass OKE Squad)

Lincoln Jefferson

TRUSTEE AKA THE OLD WISE BEARD

The non profit world can be a savage beast to navigate and to survive you need someone who has been there and done. There are non more experienced than Lincoln and we’re very fortunate to have him on board to help with our journey (think Gandalf leading those little hobbits along).

Anj Dickson

TREASURER AKA THE PURSE STRINGS

What do you get when you combine an amazing nurse at Middlemore Hospital, an ex-chef from the Ritz, London and the brilliant wife/mother of the Dickson boys? Anj, the OKE Treasurer aka The Purse Strings, ensuring the pennies are well and truly taken care of.

Lucie Drummond

SECRETARY AKA ADMINISTRATOR OF AWESOMENESS

In life you need people who know how to keep things in order, keep things on track and generally be an all round legend. OKE is very fortunate to have Lucie as our Administrator of Awesomeness (AOA).

Alex Twigg

CHAIRPERSON AKA QUEEN BEE

Its always a bonus when you can bring a wealth of global experience to support community based projects and thats where our Alex comes in. A champion for community causes since the early 90s in South Africa, Alex is helping OKE to accomplish great things here in Aotearoa
