Lord Hogan-Howe, former Metropolitan Police Commissioner, has joined the UK board of trustees.
Lord Hogan-Howe has long been at the forefront of the police’s response to modern slavery. Along with Cardinal Vincent Nicholls, he was a founding member of the Santa Marta Group – an alliance of police chiefs and bishops working around the world to combat modern slavery. He was also a member of the Evening Standard’s expert think tank on reducing slavery in the UK. He has written extensively on the issue. Arise believes that Lord Hogan-Howe will bring a strong, unique voice to the Board.
The US Board of Trustees is delighted to welcome David Bringle and Aimee Barr. We believe that they will bring great depth and understanding to the Board as Arise develops.
