Henrietta Chubb
Patron
Living in the countryside, Henrietta Chubb is only too aware of the damaging impact litter has on the environment and wildlife and the dispiriting effect litter has on one’s surroundings where one lives. Supporting communities to clean up their area has such a hugely positive affect on the whole community. It provides an opportunity for a positive outlook and encourages people to look after it for future generations.
Henrietta has had a varied career working in shareholder and investor relations and the company secretariat for East Midlands Electricity plc. She then worked for Pedigree Petfoods with roles in biochemistry, management and public relations. She has a BSc (hons) in Applied Consumer Science and an MSc in Conservation Sciences. Henrietta has also had experience in running a farming business.
Henrietta is High Sheriff of Leicestershire for the 2023-2024 year, an independent non-political Royal appointment for a single year supporting the Crown, the judiciary, emergency services and the voluntary sector in Leicestershire.
Henrietta is a trustee of the stunning and historic Harlaxton College, Grantham which is the British Campus of the University of Evansville and chairs their Advisory Council. She is also a trustee on the Board of the University of Evansville, Indiana, USA.
She chaired her local Parish Council for 20 years. Henrietta currently sits on the steering group for No Going Back, a Livery Companies initiative supporting people from prison into employment on release.
Henrietta is also a magistrate (adult criminal and youth), and enjoys raising funds for Rainbows Children’s Hospice, Loughborough as well as other causes.
Henrietta became involved with CleanupUK through The Grocers’ Company and was previously a CleanupUK Trustee. She is one of the first women elected to the Court of The Worshipful Company of Grocers’.
