Latest Trustee Appointments

Date

Following their appointment at the April Board meeting, we were delighted to welcome new Board members, Adizah Tejani and Aparajita Kashyap, at this week’s Spring Connector event.

Adizah is an AI researcher at the University of Oxford with extensive experience across technology and venture capital. Her appointment is something of a full-circle moment, having first joined TFN as an intern some 15 years ago before working as part of the TFN team and building our very first website!

Aparajita is a Philanthropy Manager at Guy's and St Thomas' Foundation, with a background in fundraising across higher education, international development and healthcare charities. She brings significant experience in building partnerships with major donors and corporate organisations.

We are excited to have Adizah and Aparajita join the Board and look forward to the insight, energy and practical, hands-on support they will bring to TFN

New TFN Treasurer – could it be you?

We are currently looking for a new Treasurer to take over from the wonderful Wendy Brierly when she steps down this October at the end of her term. We would love to hear from a qualified accountant who may be interested in joining our warm and friendly Board and helping to steer TFN through an exciting period of growth and development. If you would like to find out more, please contact Eugénie at eugenie@thefundingnetwork.org.uk
