The National Lottery Community has named three new members to the committee that oversees its funding strategy in England.

They are Helima Khan, a former Downing Street advisor, the social entrepreneur Kamran Rashid and social policy expert Karin Woodley. 

The committee members have been unveiled in the week before the NLCF announces its strategy to 2030.

John Mothersole, chair of the committee, said: “Their expertise in social policy, working with and for communities, and equity, diversity and inclusion, is invaluable to our work – and never more so as we bring our new strategy and commitment to communities to life.”

Khan has worked at Nesta and the Greater London Authority and was previously deputy director of the Prime Minister’s Strategy Unit at 10 Downing Street.

Rashid is chief executive of Impact Hub Bradford, the community interest company he founded, and is a trustee of Bradford City of Culture. He used to work for the social enterprise UnLtd.

Woodley has worked in the voluntary sector for 35 years, specialising in social policy and practice, and is chief executive of the anti-poverty charity Cambridge House.

The NLCF has also reappointed Ray Coyle to the committee, where he has been a member since 2019. Coyle is also co-chair of NCVO’s small charities advisory panel.
