Sally Powell

Sally is an experienced commercial lawyer, having originally qualified as a Solicitor with Freshfields in London. Following a brief spell in private practice in Birmingham, she then moved into industry and worked for two large PLCs, most recently as Group Head of Legal and Company Secretary.

Sally has lived in Worcestershire for over 30 years with her husband Ian, a daughter who attended school in Worcester and now lives in London, and assorted animal companions. She joined the St. Richard’s family as a volunteer in 2013 and undertook several different roles before becoming a member of the Board of Trustees in 2026.

Sally regards it as an honour and a privilege to continue to support and contribute in a trustee capacity to an organization that plays such a vital and central role in palliative and end of life care in the South Worcestershire community.  

In her spare time, Sally enjoys walking the dog and travelling to scenic places both in the UK and beyond. She is a trustee of a local tennis club and is an avid follower of most sports.
