Raine's Current Trustees
As a proud Rainean, I passed A levels in languages and mathematics. This led me to study and work in Germany followed by a successful career in international banking in the City of London.
I have been a Trustee for over 15 years and believe every child deserves the best education in order to make a positive difference in a challenging world.
