board members
Max D’Ambrumenil was in the same house as Mark at Charterhouse and went on to live with him at Oxford Brookes University, where they both read real estate management.
Max shares Mark's passion for the outdoors, especially skiing spending numerous weeks in the Alps over the years. Max is currently based in Hong Kong having relocated three years ago from London to help establish a presence for his company in Asia.
Elizabeth Evison is Mark's sister. She also has a love of the outdoors, like Mark, and loves walking and camping, although Mark was always pushing her to walk and run faster being the fitter one of the two by quite some distance. Elizabeth has a PhD in Russian history, and has spent considerable time in remoter regions of Russia, which was an adventure in itself. She now works as a civil servant.
Ian Macauslan has known Mark since he played football with him at 3 years old: they followed one another on and off through Dulwich College Prep School, Charterhouse and Oxford, remaining good friends, enjoying the life of challenges and good fun. Mark and Ian went on many holidays together, and spent Mark’s last summer backpacking around Morocco, climbing mountains and drinking mint tea. Ian is a consultant in social policy with Oxford Policy Management and advises on international development issues.
Sholto Moger went to Dulwich College Prep School and Charterhouse with Mark and has known him for much of his life. He grew up in South London, but has since moved to Salisbury where he is a Land Agent for Strutt & Parker.
He and Mark went on various holidays together to Cornwall, Scotland and the continent. They spent weeks planning trips and in 2005 walked 560 miles across the north of Spain in 18 days to raise money for 'For Dementia'. They were planning a second trip on Offa’s Dyke for the summer of 2009. Sholto loves the outdoors and like Mark is always keen to explore his mental and physical limits.
Margaret Evison is Mark’s mother. She is consultant clinical psychologist, leading a team in a large teaching hospital in London, and so is confident with service development and structures. She went on many long hikes with Mark, and loved his support through all these aspiring fitness ventures.
The Board is supported by Katherine Young, Senior Accountant, Baker Tilly UK Audit, and Dairin Moukarzel, Fundraiser.
