Woodville Alliance, a leading nonprofit organization committed to community service and advocacy, is delighted to announce the appointment of Peter Allwood as the new Chair of the Board of Directors.
Peter Allwood, whose career spans various sectors including health, property, banking, and manufacturing, both in Australia and internationally, is set to bring his extensive experience and strategic acumen to lead the board and the organization into a new era of growth and sustainability.
Allwood’s appointment comes as a strategic move for Woodville Alliance, as he is recognized for his exceptional track record in guiding organizations towards enhanced sustainability and impact. His focus on strategy development, fostering strong partnerships, and investing in human capital aligns with Woodville Alliance’s mission to create meaningful change in the communities it serves.
The organization also takes this moment to express its profound gratitude to Ken Bone for his remarkable leadership as the Chair of the Board since June 2015. Bone, who joined the Board of Directors in November 2013, has been a driving force behind the organization’s key milestones, including the significant transition from Woodville Community Services to Woodville Alliance.

Her passion and dedication have left a lasting legacy on the organization, and her contributions will be sorely missed.
Peter Allwood’s leadership comes at a pivotal time for Woodville Alliance as it seeks to further its impact and reach within the community. The organization stands on the cusp of new strategic opportunities and challenges, poised for continued growth and success under the guidance of its refreshed leadership team. With Allwood at the helm, supported by the enduring wisdom of Ken Bone and the legacy of dedicated service left by Sandra Gamble, Woodville Alliance is well-positioned to navigate the future with confidence and purpose.
