Over the past 9 years, Charles has been instrumental in supporting the organisation through significant transitions, including its shift to an independent charity in 2015 and steering OHP through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. His dynamic leadership has left a lasting impact on all of us at Opera Holland Park.

We are delighted to welcome Sir David Verey CBE as our new Chairman. Like Charles, David has been a supporter of Opera Holland Park since its inception, and also brings a wealth of experience, having chaired arts organisations including Tate, Art Fund, Government Art Collection and Friends of Leighton House.
