Appointed for 4 years from 1 January 2023

Kunle Olulode is the Director of Voice4Change England, an infrastructure charity.

Possessing a long-standing interest in culture and arts development, he has supported projects in the UK and Spain for over 25 years. A member of South Bank’s BFI’s African Odyssey programme steering group, he is also a Trustee of the English Heritage Trust, which is responsible for some of England's most iconic buildings and monuments.
