We’re governed by a board of trustees who are responsible for ensuring we’re effectively managed and that we meet our charitable objectives as set out in our governing document.

Our board of trustees meet at least quarterly. We also have a finance committee who provide further support and scrutiny on our finances. We provide board training at the start of each financial year and report annually on our impact in our trustees’ annual report and accounts.

Day to day leadership of the charity is undertaken by the senior management team, led by the Chief Executive who reports to the board.

For any questions about our governance or about our board, please use the email boardoftrustees@fertilitynetworkuk.org. This email address is checked by all members of the board. 

John O'Neill
Trustee
As an Army Officer I have regularly had my mental and physical resilience tested in training and on operations. However, nothing could have prepared me for the emotional turmoil of a fertility journey, primarily due to male factor issues. Undergoing ICSI gave us the miracle of our daughter, and I am now committed to doing all I can to help others. It is such a privilege to join the amazing team at Fertility Network UK. I will endeavour to use the leadership and change management experience gained from my profession and previous advocacy with the Defence Fertility Network to support those doing such incredible work to support others.
Kiren Samra
Trustee
I am a finance professional with extensive experience across diverse sectors. I've been involved in transformative changes, enhancing business processes and driving substantial gains. I excel at cultivating collaborative relationships with leadership teams, offering insightful analysis while fostering a culture of constructive dialogue. Outside my career, I am deeply committed to advocating for fertility issues, drawing from personal experiences of witnessing loved ones navigate the challenges of infertility.
Holly Atkinson
Trustee
It’s a dream come true to be part of this amazing cause. Infertility has dictated my entire adult life so to use my experience of IVF, miscarriage, egg donation, mental health (and everything in-between!) to make positive changes for the rest of our community will be so fulfilling. I have been a media and support group volunteer for Fertility Network UK, as well as contributing to other fertility-based projects and companies in the past. My background in education, charity sector marketing communications, fundraising and grant management combined with personal experiences hopefully means I am equipped to take on this exciting and important role.
