E3M Member Name:Mark Simms OBE Title :CEO Mark is proud to lead the P3 Charity Group as Chief Executive, overseeing P3 Charity, P3 Housing and the Rugby Portobello Trust. With over 35 years of experience in the social sector, Mark has dedicated his career to designing and delivering services that support people facing some of the toughest life challenges. Under Mark’s leadership, the P3 Charity Group has expanded its reach and impact - supporting thousands of people across the country through housing, mental health and community-based services that are person-led, trauma-informed and rooted in respect and compassion. Born and raised in Nottinghamshire, Mark’s deep commitment to social justice comes from personal experience. His family was actively involved in community work and, at times, needed the support of homelessness services themselves. These early experiences shaped his values and led him to train as a mental health nurse. Since then, he has built a diverse and people-focussed career spanning frontline support, fundraising, project leadership and systems advocacy. Mark is passionate about building services in partnership with the people they are designed to support. He is a strong advocate for collaboration, inclusion and long-term change that improves lives and transforms communities. Beyond his leadership at P3, Mark also contributes to the wider public and voluntary sectors through a number of non-executive roles, serving at both board and committee level, including the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
