Peter Edwards appointed as Chair of tCI

tCI is pleased to announce the appointment of Peter Edwards, Partner at Capsticks, as the organisation’s new Chair.

Peter has built his career advising NHS organisations, local authorities, and public bodies on governance, consultation, and service change. His work has often focused on supporting senior leaders and boards through complex and high-profile decisions where fairness, accountability, and scrutiny are critical.

In his role as Chair, Peter will provide oversight and direction as tCI continues to deliver independent assurance, practitioner learning, and strategic advice in public consultation and engagement. His appointment reflects our commitment to strong governance and to building confidence in the standards we apply.

Commenting on his appointment, Peter said:

“I am delighted to take on the role of Chair at tCI. The organisation has an important role in supporting those making difficult decisions in health, local government, and infrastructure. I look forward to working with the team to ensure that high standards in consultation and engagement are maintained and strengthened.”

Simon Angelides, Chief Executive Officer of tCI, added:

“Peter brings exceptional experience and judgement to tCI. His knowledge of governance and consultation will help us maintain our independence and credibility as we continue to support organisations through complex and often contentious change.”

Peter takes up the role with immediate effect, guiding the next phase of tCI’s development following its reset in 2025.
