I have been a governor in various schools over the past 30 years. I have recently retired from my career in higher education where I managed a group of staff teaching marketing, management and business strategy. I have also been involved in training managers in the NHS and Nissan.
My hobbies include visiting art exhibitions in a range of art galleries and museums, and walking in our beautiful countryside.
I am married to a Japanese lady, we have one son and have recently acquired a grand-daughter.
