A tribute to a much missed Trustee Martin Davies

Martin Davies OBE, PHASE Trustee sadly passed away before Christmas. Martin was very active as an important part of the PHASE Worldwide’s Trustee team and family right until his final months.

Martin brought with him an invaluable set of skills and knowledge to guide the Trustee board through the challenges of charity governance and change. A qualified lawyer with previous experience as founder of Emmaus Sheffield and as a senior police officer together with his commitment, dedication and kind manner were a winning combination. A considered, supportive and modest man.

We thank Martin for his steady hand, wise words and supportive actions over the many years he was trustee.

He will be sorely missed, rest in peace Martin xx
