I give my time freely, to support small businesses through Southern Entrepreneurs, charities, rotary clubs and secondary schools to assist teenagers in the transition from school into employment.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, short strolls with our two rescue dogs in the forest and coarse fishing.
