Sir Rodney Malcolm Aldridge (born 7 November 1947[2]) is the founder and former executive chairman of Capita, a British company specialising in business process outsourcing.
[5] The loan, which was secret at the time it was made,[6] was controversial, in part, because Capita is a major public sector supplier.
[citation needed] Aldridge is a former Chair of Vinspired, a charity launched in May 2006 aiming to help young people volunteer in their local communities.
He is a patron and former trustee of The Prince's Trust and was the Chairman of the Confederation of British Industry's (CBI) public services strategy board at its inception in 2003 through to July 2006.
In 2009, he took up a role as Chair of the Department of Health (United Kingdom) 'Dance Champions Group',[8] aiming to encourage more adults to take up dance as a form of physical activity.
