Chair of Trustees Simon Hayes

Social change doesn't happen overnight. It is a fact of human nature that people generally view the world and social problems through the lens of their own experiences and preconceptions. Hampton Trust addresses the reality of society today despite general misconceptions; this is why it is a leading organisation in the field of crime prevention and the rehabilitation of offenders.

Simon Hayes

Chair of Trustees

Simon became a Trustee of Hampton Trust in 2016 and took on the role of Chairman in 2022.

With more than 30 years experience in the private, public and voluntary sectors and working with national and local government, Simon has been a dedicated advocate in the fields of crime prevention, criminal justice, and community safety. From 2012 to 2016 he served as the first Police and Crime Commissioner for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.

Simon studied Criminology as a mature student and has a strong interest in preventing offending and re-offending, in particular for crimes linked to drug and alcohol abuse.

The work that Hampton Trust does enables individuals to break the cycle of domestic abuse and not just pick up the pieces afterwards. Support and education from an early age are most important.

Mary Downes

Trustee

Mary joined the Hampton Trust Board in 2018 after having been approached by a former colleague and being impressed by the commitment and evidence-based approach to a difficult area of work.

She brings with her a wealth of experience following twelve years in NHS management in acute and community health services, followed by twelve years in local government, both in public health and social services roles.

Mary has previously been provided governance support to Hampshire schools, and was the designated Governor for Safeguarding on a school governing body. Her particular interests lie in organisational sustainability, business development, governance, social policy and gender equality.

We will support the individual and the family on the challenge of changing perpetrator behaviour. Other common issues such as drug or alcohol abuse have support networks in place. Why should domestic violence and abuse be any different? As a society we need to be aware, understand and recognise that violence and abuse has many forms and that there is no shame in asking for help.

Sue Gregory

Sue was appointed as a Trustee for Hampton Trust in 2018 and brings with her a wealth of experience after 24 years of service as a professionally qualified Local Government Officer in the housing sector, followed by a successful career as an IT business consultant spanning 17 years.

Since retiring, Sue has dedicated her time to contributing to causes she deeply believes in. She was introduced to Hampton Trust through another Trustee and was immediately impressed by the impactful work being carried out. Having worked in housing, Sue understands firsthand the difficulties that families experiencing domestic violence face. This personal connection motivated her to support such families by offering her time and expertise as a Trustee.

Hampton Trust

Hampton Trust has become the key influence in the UK effort to break the habit of relationship abuse within families. The key difference compared to others working in the field lies in the Trust’s successful evidence-based interventions now backed with highly effective training for those having frontline contact with offenders.

Rodney Hogg

Trustee

Rodney joined Hampton Trust as a Trustee in 2006. Although he stepped down from his role as Chair in 2022, he remains actively involved providing expertise gained in his professional life as the CEO and Chairman of Spinlock Ltd., a medium-sized specialist manufacturer of marine personal safety and load control equipment.

The company received prestigious accolades, including the Queen’s Awards for Enterprise in Export (2016) and Innovation (2017).

Beyond his professional endeavours, Rodney serves as a Trustee for the Friends of Newport Minster. Additionally, he has a passion for sailing and aspires to be an amateur blacksmith.

The simple answer is education. The ability to call out unacceptable behaviour and to re-educate is vital. Domestic violence and abuse can take a number of different forms and can be learnt behaviour, so it’s important to stop this behaviour being passed down the generations. While Hampton Trust’s work affects today’s offenders, it also goes a long way to stopping this behaviour becoming further engrained.

Amelia Riviere

Trustee

Amelia has been a Trustee of Hampton Trust since 2022. She spent her professional life in London, where she worked in fund management and equity sales for a number of large investment banks.

Upon leaving the financial sector, she has volunteered extensively, primarily in the criminal justice system as a magistrate on the North Hampshire Bench both in the adult and the youth jurisdiction, and as a member of the IMB (Independent Monitoring Boards). Alongside her work at Hampton Trust, Amelia is also a Trustee of Trinity Winchester and Allegra’s Ambition.

Hampton Trust is a trailblazer. The team are very clear sighted about the causes of domestic abuse and the points at which intervention is needed to break destructive cycles. They have the creativity, perseverance and courage to do some of the most difficult work in the sector and can demonstrate the outcomes of their work with rigorous monitoring and external evaluation. If there was no Hampton Trust I doubt that some of the important and essential work now in hand around domestic abuse would be taking place.

Peter Rouch

Trustee

Peter is currently the CEO of Church Army UK & Ireland, a Christian charity working to address social deprivation through partnership and collaboration. He became a Trustee for Hampton Trust in 2019.

After an early career with Barclays Bank, Peter trained for ministry at Westcott House in Cambridge. Following a curacy in London and a period as a research fellow at St Stephen’s House in Oxford, Peter was then Priest-in-Charge of two parishes near the centre of Manchester, followed by nearly a decade as Archdeacon of Bournemouth, a short period at Lambeth, and in the Diocese of Winchester.

Peter’s work as an Archdeacon brought him face-to-face with the complex and challenging aspects of domestic abuse and motivated him to become a Trustee of Hampton Trust. His work with the Trust has proven to be profoundly rewarding, allowing him to directly contribute to breaking destructive cycles.

Peter Swinburn

Trustee

Peter became a Trustee for Hampton Trust in 2015. He is the Chief Executive Officer of Clarke Willmott, a prominent regional law firm, and brings valuable commercial market knowledge to the Trust.
