Trustees

Golddigger Trust wouldn’t exist without our fantastic board of trustees, who each volunteer their time to ‘dot the i’s’, ‘cross the t’s’ and make sure that Golddigger Trust is governed well.

Matthew Brook, Chair of Trustees . . .

Matt joined the Golddigger Trust Board in January 2022 after supporting and advising the Golddigger team already for a few years. He, his wife and three teenage children, all live in north west Sheffield and are all active members of Oughtibridge Parish Church. Matt has over 20 years of industry and leadership experience in technology and consulting and has also been heavily involved in church leadership over the years, so he’s really enthusiastic about combining our values and vision, our Christian ethos and his professional experience together, supporting the young people of Sheffield.

Jo Henry, Trustee Secretary. . .

Jo joined the Golddigger Trust Board in November 2019 and brings over 9 years of experience as an Events and Project Manager, and most recently as a Project Director for local charity 'Together for Sheffield'. Within these roles she’s worked closely with high-net-worth donors and fundraising campaigns, which proves useful expertise on the board! Jo became the Trustee Secretary in early 2020, a role that brings together her passion for organisation and facilitating others. She and her husband Simon live in Loxley with their young daughter and are part of STC Sheffield. They can generally be found eating/cooking/walking to burn off the eating...

 

Sarah Proctor, Trustee . . .

Sarah joined the GDT Trustee Board in March 2019. Sarah is a qualified accountant, currently working in the pensions sector. She has over 16 years of financial and accounting experience and is excited to be able to use her skills to serve Golddigger Trust. Sarah lives in Crookes and is a member of her local church, STC Sheffield. Sarah loves to stay active and can often be found walking her dog or running (without the dog) in the city or out in the Peak District.

Geoff Atkinson, Treasurer . . .

Geoff joined the Golddigger Trust Board in January 2017, bringing his technical and personal experience. Geoff's work involves him in project management and team leadership, and as an engineer he likes problem solving and the challenge of architecting good quality systems.
