Peter Meiklejohn

Something about my past/present

I live in East Lothian with my wife  and children.

I’ve spent 15 years working in finance both in the UK and Singapore and hold an MA from the University of Oxford, an MSc from the University of Edinburgh, and am an active CFA Charterholder.

What brought me to the foodbank?

It doesn’t make sense to me that food poverty still exists in this country. I consider myself very lucky in life and want to do whatever little I can to help others who are less fortunate, even if that’s just a few hours a week working in the warehouse or delivering packages to struggling households.
