Cathy Gibbins
I have been a trustee since February 2016. Since retiring, from the Office for National Statistics, I have volunteered at Volunteer Centre Camden for 12 years and been involved in carrying out surveys and producing statistics for VCC and generally helping out in the office. My knowledge of
VCC operations helps brings practical experience to the board decisions. I co-founded a charity for the homeless and for r many years helped run it. I am currently a volunteer at a community centre in Cricklewood whose activities include working with the homeless.
