BB Executive Team
Todd Harper BSC. - National President
My BB journey has spanned nearly 20 years, starting in the Anchor Boys with the 7th Hamilton Company. Here I gained my queens badge and attended our world-class NLDC training course. In addition to my role as a BB New Zealand Executive Board Member, I am a current trustee of ‘The Boys' Brigade in New Zealand, Northern Regional Trust’. Outside of BB, I am passionate about community-based, not-for-profit organisations and serve in various governance roles through them all. I am passionate about our ministry and know first-hand the impact it can have on the lives of young people. As a communicator by trade and training, I hope I can be a strong voice for the most important stakeholder in our organisation, our boys’.
