John Lotherington is delighted to announce that his successor as Chair of FDSD’s Board of Trustees is Graham Smith, Professor of Politics at the Centre for the Study of Democracy, University of Westminster. Graham is a specialist in democratic innovation and citizen engagement and has a particular interest in climate politics and the representation of future generations.
John said, ‘It has been a real privilege to chair such a dedicated board of activist trustees who have been increasing FDSD’s impact steadily, way beyond its limited resources. Graham is the ideal Chair to take this work onwards and upwards, and I’m much looking forward to continuing my involvement as a trustee as we move into our next phase.’
