Three new members have been appointed to our Board by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport.
Tom Gribbin, Vaughan Lindsay and Sarah Massey have each been appointed for terms of three years.
They join the team – led by our chair, Chris Boardman – who are responsible for:
- setting and agreeing strategy and policy
- overseeing the development and implementation of major projects
- approving all grant awards which exceed £2 million
- approving Sport England’s Annual Report and Financial Statements
- overseeing performance management.
Chris is pleased to bring the trio on board as we enter a new phase in the delivery of our Uniting the Movement strategy under a new chief executive, Simon Hayes.
“I’m delighted to welcome Sarah, Tom and Vaughan to the Sport England Board,” Chris said.
“Together, they bring a wealth of experience – from major events to start-ups, to work with national governing bodies and environmental sustainability projects.
“Align that with their own personal experiences of sport and physical activity, they’ll be a great addition to our Board and I look forward to working with them.”
