Richard Kotulecki
Lamp (Leicestershire Action for Mental Health Project) has appointed Richard Kotulecki as its new CEO.
Kotulecki brings more than 17 years’ charity leadership experience to his new role, having previously served in senior positions including chief executive, services director and transformation lead. He will be responsible for leading the organisation to expand its service provision, grow its income, and provide mental health advocacy and support for the people and communities in Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland.
He said: “I have a strong belief – born out of a family history of poor mental health and backed by my experiences working with people who have suffered physical and emotional trauma – that mental health challenges should not cost the opportunity to live a fulfilled life. I believe that this experience will help me to lead Lamp through the next stage of its developmental journey.
“The combination of high-profile people addressing their own challenges and the realities of pandemic living has engendered a greater societal understanding and acceptance of mental health issues. Whilst this increased exposure is a positive development overall, it could also create a substantial challenge for smaller organisations such as Lamp, so I am committed to leading the team to address these challenges in evolving our successful and well-regarded services to reach a wider and more diverse audience.”
