Comic Relief
Trustee
Comic Relief is a major charity based in the UK, with a vision of a just world free from poverty. Since they first launched in 1985 their mission has been ‘to drive change through the power of entertainment’. They sought a Trustee with a genuine passion for Comic Relief’s vision, who is able to add value to the charity through expertise, counsel and sound judgement.
In six days Nurole identified Tom Shropshire, the Corporate Partner & Global Head of US Practice at Linklaters LLP and Trustee for Prostate Cancer UK. Tom has served on and advised, a number of different boards of directors and executive management committees on a range of matters over the last decade. His extensive experience and commitment to making a positive change in the UK and around the globe, made him the perfect candidate.
My experience with Nurole has been excellent and it has presented me with roles that I would not otherwise have been presented with. Having been part of the Parker Review that made recommendations on ways to enhance the ethnic diversity of UK boards, I have found the insight and access that Nurole has created to be a very important tool in breaking down longstanding barriers.
