New patron joins social care charity

WORTHING social care charity Guild Care has appointed four new patrons.

Henna Chowdhury, a long-time Worthing resident since 1986, is the founder of the Henna Foundation and a former Mayor of Worthing. Educated locally at Northbrook College, she has worked at the Department for Social Security, in the voluntary sector, and at a local NHS hospital. 

As a community interpreter, she has served in settings ranging from mental health services to courts. Henna is also a governor at a local school for children with special needs. Elected in 2019, Henna Chowdhury now serves as the Borough Councillor for Gaisford Ward and County Councillor for Tarring.

Businessman and local philanthropist Mike Holland started working in housebuilding at 18, and by the time he was 21 he was investing in the construction of his developments. He has always been involved with charities and has a personal understanding of how important their support can be as his son has cerebral palsy. As a successful businessman, Mike has also championed the essential work of the voluntary sector.

Peter and Mavis Robinson have both been long-standing supporters of Guild Care. Peter joined the Guild Care Board in 2001 and became chair in 2006. 

He stepped down from the Board in 2011 but has remained a Guild Care member and brings a wealth of knowledge in the care sector and an appreciation of the mission and values of the operator.
