MEET THE TEAM

Al MacEwen

On my role: I am always interested in your thoughts on both engagement and fundraising and I would be very happy to discuss our current and future development plans with you.

On Bradfield: I have lived and worked here for 21 years, as a teacher, Housemaster and Head of Department. I know the College intimately and I want to make sure that you are able to benefit from and enjoy your connection with the College as much as I do.

On me: I love cricket and hockey and now get to spend most of my weekends helping my children follow their sporting passions

 

 

Kirsty Perkinson

On my role:

Bradfield College simply wouldn’t be the school it is today without the generosity of our alumni, parents (past and present), staff, and friends. Philanthropy has helped shape our campus and our culture—from transformational projects like The St Andrew’s Study Centre, Sports Centre, Greek Theatre, and our cutting-edge Science Centre, to the nurturing and empowering impact of our means-tested Bursary programme. Bradfield’s 175-year history is marked by the collective generosity of our close-knit community.

If you’re curious about being part of Bradfield’s legacy, I’d love to hear what inspires you. Whether it’s a passion for education, a connection to the College, or a desire to make a difference, I’m here to help you explore meaningful ways to ‘Be Involved’, in a whatever what you can, to help support future generations of Bradfieldians.

On Bradfield: As a parent of two Bradfield pupils, it’s been wonderful to see them grow and flourish as they grasp every opportunity that Bradfield offers – and there are so many of them. I truly believe that Bradfield is special place that helps young people grow into adventurous, curious and kind individuals who will go on to give so much back to society in future years.

On me: On the weekends I love exploring the beautiful West Berkshire countryside trail running with my two fox red labradors, Jasper and Alfie. I enjoy singing (with enthusiasm if not talent), and my Kiwi husband can be found at the BBQ, whatever the British weather, cooking for friends and family.

Karen Ward

On my role: I coordinate the Bradfield Society events programme and update the website, to ensure that there is something that will appeal to everyone – from social gatherings to sporting events. If you are interested in reconnecting with the College, sharing your memories or organising a reunion, please get in touch!

On Bradfield: I am a former parent and so appreciate the parent and young alumni journey.

On me: I live locally and enjoy being part of the Bradfield community and I am learning to play Golf on the College course.

Katie Green-Armytage

On my role: I manage the Bradfield Society’s communications channels from the Bradfield Society online platform to being Editor of The Bradfieldian . If you are interested in any areas – supporting careers, professional networking, starting or joining a club and build a following, get in touch! An experienced project manager, I also manage the engagement and fundraising campaigns.

On Bradfield: I enjoy the diversity of the role and working with the wonderful people across the community, all with different takes on what Bradfield means to them and how they can be involved with the community.

On me: I am both a parent of a son in Faulkner’s as well as St Andrew’s, Berkshire and I’m pleased to say they love their schools. I also appreciate being able to work in such a stunning rural location and nipping out for a run at lunchtime is a real treat!

Sam Smith

On my role: I work on our database to ensure that we hold the most accurate information, if your details have changed do get in touch! I also manage the gifts made by members of the community in support of fundraising initiatives.

On Bradfield: I am one of many alumni who have chosen to return to the College to work, and have other family members who have both attended Bradfield as pupils and worked here, so I know the College pretty well.

On me: I enjoy history and travelling, and have travelled throughout Europe, the Americas and the Middle East.

John Cardwell

On my role: I manage the archive, ensuring that its contents are accessible to those wishing to learn about Bradfield and its history. If you have any questions or would like to donate material to enrich the collections, please do get in touch.

On Bradfield: I am interested in Bradfield’s long and distinguished history, and particularly in the generations of people who have contributed so much to its academic, cultural and sporting life.  I have just joined and hope to apply my experience as an archivist and historian at Cambridge University and the National Maritime Museum to help Bradfield tell its fascinating story.

On me: I am interested in history, the theatre, travel, cycling and hiking.
