Alexander Campbell BA CMgr FCMI

Alexander Campbell took over at the helm of the organisation in June 2003 and in that time has led the development of a new vision and direction for the organisation. Queen Victoria Seamen's Rest champions the needs of the seafarer both active and retired. The organisation also endeavours to support active and retired servicemen in need of accommodation as well as other individuals who find themselves homeless.

The ‘Queen Vic' has a strong reputation as it has been serving seafarers for over 160 years and Alexander has continued to build on this by being in the forefront of establishing imaginative new services to reach the people and help them rebuild their lives and discover new opportunities.

Alexander was born and educated in Scotland and studied at the University of Dundee where he gained a BA in Professional Studies. He has spent over two decades working in social care; most of this period was spent working with frontline homeless services and housing associations.

Driven by a passionate commitment to give new opportunities to vulnerable groups including homeless people, Alexander's varied career has given him rich experience of working in the heart of excluded communities across the country, including London, Portsmouth, Leicester, Liverpool, Glasgow and latterly the highland capital of Inverness. His desire is to help the marginalised find a route back into the heart of society.

Alexander resides in Essex and enjoys travelling and music making through his passion for brass bands. As well as being on the board of the Merchant Navy War Memorial Society, he is also a member of the Tower Hamlets Supporting People Core Strategy Group.
