Henrietta Chubb (Trustee)

Living in the countryside, Henrietta Chubb (Trustee) is only too aware of the damaging impact litter has on the environment and wildlife there and the dispiriting effect litter has on one’s surroundings. She believes littering is a reflection on how people feel about themselves, the area they choose to litter and their community. Supporting communities to clean up their area has such a hugely positive affect on the whole community. It provides an opportunity for a positive outlook and encourages people to look after it for future generations.

Henrietta has had a varied career working in shareholder and investor relations and the Company Secretariat following the privatisation of the electricity boards and then working in the pet food industry doing biochemistry, management and public relations. She has a BSc (hons) in Applied Consumer Science and an MSc in Conservation Sciences. Henrietta has also had experience in running a farming business.

Henrietta is currently a Trustee at the stunning Harlaxton College, Grantham, that is the centre for the “study abroad programme” for the University of Evansville and its partner colleges and she chairs their Advisory Council. She is also a magistrate, chairs her Parish Council and is a fundraiser for Rainbows Children’s Hospice, Loughborough as well as other causes.

Henrietta became involved with CleanupUK through The Grocers’ Company. She is one of the first women elected to the Court of The Grocers’ Company.
