Our UK Trustees

Our Trustees work together to develop a clear strategy for the future of International Animal Rescue. Each trustee plays a key role in directing the charity towards a more sustainable and impactful future.

We are fortunate to have a very supportive board who passionately believe in protecting the environment and the many species that rely on a healthy planet.
