Meet the trustees

Cecilia Cruz

For seven years, Calthorpe Community Garden has been more than a place to Cecilia - it’s been a sanctuary of warmth, connection, and shared humanity. In 2023, Cecilia stepped into the role of Trustee, driven by a deep commitment to protect what makes this space so special. Her mission is to preserve this legacy of unity and care. Cecilia believes in a future where Calthorpe remains a refuge where generations can continue to connect, heal, and thrive. Together, we’re not just tending a garden; we’re growing a community rooted in respect, joy, and the belief that when we come together, we flourish.

Holly Norman (Secretary)

Holly is a researcher at the Institute for Global Prosperity, UCL, where she focuses on food systems, public services, and social justice in urban environments. She was co-opted to the Trustee Board in 2025. Originally from Bristol and now living in Hackney, Holly is passionate about community, the arts, and nature. She enjoys hiking and being outdoors.

Macarena Oneto (Vice Chair)

Macarena is a university graduate with over 18 years of experience in the public sector. She lives locally and has strong relationships with businesses, residents, and community leaders in Camden. She is passionate about working with minority communities and has dedicated her career to promoting inclusion and social equity. Outside of work, she loves singing and travelling.

Becca Farnum (Safeguarding)

Becca is an activist and academic focused on environmental justice and community engagement. She chairs the Advisory Board for We Do Green Rwanda (a youth-led agroforestry movement) and leads the Arts Initiative of the Environmental Peacebuilding Association. Past projects have involved drafting legal policy for the United Nations; community organising for equal rights policies; and serving a stint in the Obama White House.

Michal Jordan (Treasurer)

Michal is a newly appointed trustee, bringing enthusiasm and a passion for fostering meaningful social connections through the power of nature. Michal aims to add value through a strong professional background in project and programme management, and years of experience in volunteerism.

Driving a positive change, support sustainable growth, and shape impactful initiatives that will enhance the lives of local residents.
