Trade association leader John Newcomb appointed to the board of The Educational Frontier Trust

29th March 2024

John Newcomb, Chief Executive of the Builders Merchants Federation, has joined the board of The Educational Frontier Trust (TEFT) with responsibility for overseeing partnerships and event based fundraising. TEFT will draw on John's significant experience in fundraising projects, which has seen him motivate the Building Materials sector to raise more than half a million pounds for charities and good causes since 2018. For 11 years, John has been a committed supporter of the Kisima School in Kenya and has already helped to raise more than £25,000 with activities including a sponsored cycle and auction of prizes.

John said: "The work at Kisima School is something I feel passionately about and I am looking forward to increasing opportunities for the pupils there and amplifying the message and raising funds to provide life-changing chances to young people in Kenya."
