Our Pembroke House trustees are an integral part of the organisation and this year we have continued to strengthen and diversify our board. We are delighted to have recruited two new trustees to the board.
Theophilia Shaw is a local mum and long-term Walworth resident, with excellent first hand knowledge of the neighbourhood and communities that make it. Previously, Theo was a trustee of InSpire and is a current member of St Peter’s Church. She has significant experience in various roles within the community and social care sector and is passionate about making a positive impact on individuals and communities and promoting social justice and equality.
“My deep-rooted connection to the local community, combined with my passion for social justice and my understanding of the challenges faced by individuals and families, will enable me to contribute effectively to the organisation’s mission.”
Carol Hustler moved to Walworth 20 years ago and has been a regular volunteer with Pembroke House for over 7 years. Her involvement in Pembroke House has ranged from delivering food parcels during the pandemic, to being a Digital Support champion, to establishing and leading a reader group. A keen parkrunner at Burgess Park, Carol is a huge fan of our precious outdoor space and the chance to build community participation. Carol brings professional experience in bid-writing and currently owns a consultancy business which trains and supports small businesses to respond effectively to tenders and contracts.
“I have lived in Walworth since 2004, although I had lived in London for 8 years previous to this, Walworth was the first place that became home to me…I would be delighted to serve my local community and put some of my skills to good use”
