CEO

More about Robin

“Hello and Welcome to Remarkable, I’m Robin Bush, the CEO.

I came to Remarkable (formerly known as Wargrave House Ltd) in September 2019 and have spent the first couple of years supporting the organisation to rebuild its infrastructure and build some solid foundations for future growth and development. My 30 year career started as a support worker at a residential special school in Devon.

From then I moved around a bit, developing the Isle of Man’s first autism services, establishing supported living accommodation across the North West and more recently leading a regional Autism Charity employing over 1000 staff.

I have been privileged to lead some exciting regional, national and international projects designed to improve the lived experiences of people on the autism spectrum.

These have included advising the Government on the autism bill, speaking at Parliament to change hate crime legislation, developing Liverpool as an autism friendly city and establishing an international research project using bio-metric technology.

Remarkable Autism Ltd, through Wargrave House School and Ascent College, has a long history of supporting people to reach their potential.

Together we will be able to continue this good work, ensuring that everyone with autism is supported to understand and thrive in their world and that the world is able to understand autism.”

More about Julliet

“Hello, it’s lovely to greet you all. I am Julliet, Head of Adult Services at Ascent College (formerly known as LEAP College). I have worked for the Remarkable organisation, since 2014 in the capacity of teacher and ultimately Head of Adult Services. I have 30+ years of education experience across mainstream and specialist secondary schools, sixth forms, general FE’s and Independent Specialist Provisions.

My career has always been focussed on breaking down barriers to education for all young adults with SEN, offering bespoke curriculums, engaging experiential experiences and ultimately successful outcomes. My passion for working with autistic adults led me to Wargrave House School and College, LEAP College in 2014. I have never looked back, the young people who attend Ascent College, and their families/carers, inspire me every day, I feel privileged to work within the student and staff team at Ascent College with our shared vision for all our young adults to live happy fulfilled lives.

In my downtime, mostly at weekends or holidays, I am an avid walker and love nothing more than to be out and about with my dogs and where possible spend time with my two young grandchildren.”

More about Kate

“Hi, I’m Kate Wellock, PA to Executive Office/Clerk here at Remarkable.  I joined the remarkable mission in January 2021 and have thoroughly enjoyed becoming part of this incredible Charity. 

My 25 Year career started training to become a primary school teacher, with a passion for how important education is for everyone.  From there came a slight left turn into a Business and Marketing Degree and learning more about the world of business. 

I have been so lucky to have worked in a variety of educational institutions from work based learning through to post 16 education and now into the world of Autism Specialist Education.

So blessed to have a wonderful family and spend every minute I can with them by the sea.”
