Geraldine Peacock: 'It's strategically important for me to move on.'

Chief charity commissioner Geraldine Peacock today announced that she is to step down from her role later this year.

Ms Peacock, who is also the Charity Commission's first chair, said her decision to step down was based on a 'combination of personal, professional and parliamentary factors', citing her engagement to a Canadian citizen, her treatment for Parkinson's disease and the slower-than-hoped for progress of the charities bill."
