Guiding Bromley Homeless with experience, integrity, and compassion. Our Trustees are committed to helping the charity deliver its mission to support vulnerable people experiencing homelessness across the borough of Bromley.

Mark took over as chair of Bromley Homeless in 2026. He brings extensive experience in governance, assurance and organisational leadership to the board from his senior role in the UK rail industry. A lifelong Bromley resident, Mark has seen first hand the need across the borough, including supporting a close family member facing homelessness, and is passionate about the important difference Bromley Homeless is making in people’s lives.

Sandra Taylor

Sandra
My name is Sandra Taylor and I have been involved with Bromley Homeless for well over 15 years now. I started as a cook in the Winter Night Shelter and, over the years have increased my volunteering to include sleeping over, team leading and now being a trustee for the charity. I have really enjoyed meeting all of our guests and have learned so much from them. I also enjoy meeting different volunteers. I am a Senior Advisory Teacher for the London Borough of Bromley and have worked with children and young adults who have additional needs for all of my working life. In my spare time I enjoy going to the theatre, knitting, socialising with friends and one of my passions is swimming. You will find me swimming outside all year round, whatever the weather.

Ian

As an Assistant Director in social housing, Ian brings extensive expertise in managing complex new home developments and sector knowledge. While his professional role focuses on strategic housing development, he joined Bromley Homeless as a Trustee to apply his skills directly to those facing the most acute housing crises. Recognising that rough sleeping requires a specialised, compassionate response distinct from his work experience, Ian is dedicated to bridging that gap. He is committed to using his industry knowledge and professional energy to support the charity in providing any advice and assistance that he can.

Angela spends much of her time with local social action, community projects and charities helping individuals break the cycles of homelessness and hopelessness.

David
David’s career includes being employed by British Gas, Transco, National Grid, and finally the US IT company CSC. While working in the corporate sector, he always felt that losing the roof over your head has got to be the worst thing that can happen to you and your family. Once he left the corporate world in 2018, David began volunteering for Bromley Homeless.
He has since served our charity for years, starting as an Overnight Volunteer before stepping up as a Team Lead. David now uses his extensive professional background as a Trustee and the lead for all IT and governance matters.

Eileen Hayes

Eileen

I’m an experienced volunteer manager and have worked in the charity sector for 20 years with and alongside volunteers. I am currently the Volunteering Operations Lead at Parkinson’s UK, working with my team to ensure volunteering is easy, engaging and enriching. 
I have been a trustee for Bromley Homeless for just over 2 years and was appointed around the same time as we recruited our first Volunteer Coordinator. I have supported the Volunteer Coordinator to develop volunteer policy, process and the volunteer journey at Bromley Homeless. 
I am constantly in awe of the people who give their time to be part of the Bromley Homeless community as volunteers. It feels like an amazing and powerful movement. 
As well as being a trustee I volunteer at the Sunday cafe where I enjoy watching DVDs and having a cuppa with the shelter guests. I really enjoy meeting and getting to know them. 
In the future I hope we can involve even more volunteers to build our community of support for people experiencing homelessness in our town.
