Home-Start London is delighted to welcome three new trustees to its Board, following their election at our recent Annual General Meeting.

Matthew Reynolds, Helen Keenan and Mandy Tottman bring fresh perspectives, experience and enthusiasm to the Board, strengthening Home-Start London’s commitment to supporting its network of local Home-Start schemes and helping more families across the capital access the support they need.

The appointments come as we celebrate Trustees’ Week, recognising the invaluable contribution trustees make to charities and communities across the UK.

Our new trustees shared why they are excited to be joining Home-Start London:

Matthew Reynolds said: “I am very excited to join the Board of Home-Start London, to help support the amazing Home-Start branches and volunteers reach as many young families as possible across the city.”

Helen Keenan said: “Really pleased to be joining the Board of Home-Start London. Families are at the heart of strong communities, and I’m looking forward to playing a part in making sure more of them get the support they deserve.”      

Mandy Tottenham said: “I’m delighted to be joining Home-Start London as a trustee and look forward to working alongside its dedicated team, supporting local Home-Starts across the capital, so that more families can get the support they need.”

Together, they bring a wealth of experience spanning volunteering and community engagement, charity leadership and grassroots family support. Matthew is Head of Volunteering at Save the Children UK, Helen is CEO of Time & Talent, and Mandy brings valuable first-hand Home-Start experience as both a trustee and volunteer with Home-Start Richmond, Kingston & Hounslow.

We are thrilled to welcome Matthew, Helen and Mandy to the Board and look forward to working with them as we continue to champion and strengthen the Home-Start network across London.

Welcome to Home-Start London!
