Why do I want to be a Barnwood Trustee? 

I have a lifelong personal and professional commitment to social justice and have made every endeavour to use my varied legal career to further this aim, as well as my leadership roles in a variety of third sector organisations and networks, locally and nationally. Good and effective governance and strong stewardship of organisations is a crucial part of this ambition.

What experience do I bring to the Trust?

I became disabled 25 years ago and this has had a devastating, but also empowering impact on my life.  I am proud to have become a trustee in 2014 and strive to ensure Barnwood Trust meets its objective and achieves significant improvement in the lives of our beneficiaries in Gloucestershire.
