Our Trustees and our charitable objects
Stormwater Shepherds UK is an independent charity and our Board of Trustees are responsible for the delivery and oversight of our charitable activity.
The Trustees on our Board are Mr Neville Wells, Mr Bret Kerr and Mr Bryan Pocock. They each run their own businesses, and thus bring a wealth of business acumen to the Board and this means that they have the skills necessary to make sure that Stormwater Shepherds UK is run effectively, honestly and successfully.
