Peter Ptashko

Appointed March 2022.

Peter has worked in social enterprise for the last 15 years, working for foundations, international networks, and a variety of educational institutions with a focus on social change. Currently he is a consultant and CEO of his own company – Cambio: House of Social Change – and supports social businesses to start and scale through a combination of coaching, consulting and teaching.

Peter has lived in Camden for over 10 years and has been active in the community across a variety of community organisations. This includes being a school governor and work with Voluntary Action Camden.

Why did you want to be a governor?

The Tavistock is an important institution in Camden so this post was interesting to me. I don’t have a healthcare background, but I do have a background in governance and have a variety of Board experience having sat on Boards for 15 years. From my business background I have experience leading organisations, and from my work with social business I bring an understanding of social impact and the work of social and public sector organisations. I’ve got a lot of governance experience and a variety of skills and attributes that could be valuable to the local community.
