Life President

Professor Khalid Aziz LVO DL FRSA

Professor Aziz chaired the team of Trustees which, starting  in 1990 raised an initial £7 million to build, equip and endow running costs for our first Children’s Hospice, Naomi House. 

Khalid oversaw the design, construction and commissioning of Naomi House and then went on to raise a further £12 million to build our second hospice,  Jacksplace. 

Khalid retired from the Board of Trustees after nearly 25 years of service as Chair, when he was appointed Life President.
