Meet our team

Geoff Stevens

Managing Director

Creative director with many years of experience in branding and corporate identity, typographic and graphic design, photography and video production, Geoff was the founder Creative Director of The Upper Room and has also found the time to acquire some land, and set up a charity called ‘Pathways Care Farm’. He can often be seen on the farm followed around by a goose called JarJar! Check out their work at www.pathways-care-farm.org.uk

Chris Allen

Senior Designer

Chris studied at Ravensbourne college of art and design. His extensive experience has been gained working for holiday companies like Cosmos and Keycamp Holidays, publishing company Hodder & Stoughton and large corporate companies like Barclays Bank and Johnson & Johnson. He has also provided design services to the property and signage industry. Geoff says his only downside is that he supports Chelsea! Oh, and he blows his own trumpet... well sort of!

Tom Horner

Senior Designer

Creative and web designer/builder. Tom trained at Ravensbourne College and Kent Institute of Art and Design. Has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to social media and online communications. Tom has worked across a broad spectrum of industry areas including pharmaceutical, finance, law and property marketing. A keen collector of vinyl, he also like to play the odd game of chess and watch Star Wars in his spare time!

Pete Rogers

Designer, Illustrator

Specialist concept/logo designer, writer, illustrator… brilliant at seeing things from a different angle. Pete trained at Camberwell School of Art and was responsible for setting up The Upper Room with Geoff. Not just a graphic designer, Pete writes and illustrates his own children's books in his spare time! If you need someone to stay the distance then Pete is your man as he is also a long distance runner of note!

Adaptable, creative, responsive and… patient. All the qualities that The Upper Room has shown in dealing with our design and printing needs over the last 15 years or so.

Lynda Wight, Executive Director

They have to be good or else I wouldn’t have used them for more than 20 years!

Chris Perry, Managing Director

I’ve worked with The Upper Room for nearly a decade, and always received a timely, well thought through, creative response. The cost effectiveness of the output belies the high level of quality I always receive. The team are always a pleasure to work with.

Catherine Brindle, Marketing Consultant

Church Urban Fund has worked with The Upper Room for many years and always been well supported with timely, cost effective work.

Jeremy Apsinall, Director of Fundraising & Communications

It’s great working with a team of thoughtful, experienced and highly creative guys, providing refreshingly creative treatments that really work. I know I can give the Upper Room a brief, which they will deliver on time, on message and always within budget.

Anthony Dallison, Managing Director

Just so you know how important the stuff you have done for our fundraising is, I can tell you that individual fundraising alone raised over £560,000 this year. All those amends and re-amends that you’ve done were well worth it! Thanks for all your help.

Jason Bowles, Fundraising Manager

Working with The Upper Room has been an absolute pleasure and a great learning experience. They have been exceptional when working alongside me as part of a team and on their own initiative. They are adaptable, willing and able to turn around additional work at very short notice.

Madeleine Meyer, Editor
