    Neil joined the Trust in 2020 after retiring from 25 years at Deloitte.

    Neil brings a wealth of experience to the board and is involved in supporting the General Manager on operational matters.

    He is also a keen/ obsessive Chelsea supporter but we try not to hold that against him.

  • James Peggie

    James has been a Trustee since 2020 and supports us on our governance and legal matters.

    Although only recently joining the Trust, James has had a long association with the fields and regularly plays cricket here in the summer and is a key figure in local grassroots football.

  • Ben Freeman

    Ben is the Headmaster of Finton House School in south west London and joined the Trust in 2021 to represent Finton as one of our key partners here at Trinity Fields. We work closely with Ben and his staff at Finton to ensure the facilities are available for the whole community.

  • Mark Peters

    Mark joined us in 2017 and is currently the Deputy Head at Hornsby House. As one of our key school partners, Hornsby and Mark are hugely supportive and instrumental in ensuring the fields are meeting the charitable objectives and Mark is often spotted at the fields with his whistle refereeing the many tournaments and festivals we run for local schools in the community.

  • Yvonne Johnson

    Yvonne has been a Trustee since 2023 and supports us on our accounting and financial reporting.

    Yvonne has many years of experience as a finance director & charity trustee. She has a long association with Trinity Fields through friends and family using the fields for school sports.

  • Rachel Farrow-Smith

    Rachel Farrow-Smith

    Rachel has lived in Balham for 20 years and became a Trustee of Trinity Fields in 2024. After leaving her career as a Corporate and Financial Litigation lawyer in the City, Rachel has been involved with several local community organisations. Her three children attended a local state primary school, where she was the head of the PTA and spent a large amount of time chaperoning school sports trips within Wandsworth. Rachel is also an FA-qualified football coach who set up and ran a successful girls’ football team at Broomwood FC. She also helped to establish a Development Squad for older girls who were new to football but keen to learn how to play.

    Although her children are now teenagers and young adults, all continue to play sport and Rachel can usually be found cheering them on from football and hockey touchlines. Rachel has seen first-hand the positive and transformative effect that sport can have on children’s lives – especially their physical and mental well-being. She is keen to ensure that as many local children as possible can experience this at Trinity Fields, particularly those who might not otherwise have access to top-quality facilities.

  • Jennifer Athill

    Jennifer became a trustee in 2025 and has been involved with the Fields as a parent supporter of teams her sons played in on the Fields for many years. An ex director of Broomwood FC ( a local grassroots football club) Jenn now looks after the open age mens’ team - AFC Broomwood. Jenn is a passionate believer in the benefits of team sports and positive (parental or otherwise) support from the sidelines.

  • Rosie Halfhead

    Rosie joined the Trust as Chair in June 2025. She has had an extensive corporate and consulting career. She holds two other non-executive director roles and brings considerable experience in governance, leadership and board effectiveness. In her younger days she was a keen athlete and hockey player representing Wiltshire on numerous occasions. As a local resident she is determined to ensure the Trust provides safe and well maintained playing fields so it can deliver on its commitments and charitable aims, now into the future, to encourage young people in the community to be healthy and active.
