I have worked in the Manufacturing Industry based around the West Midlands for 44 years and have now retired. Whilst working, I was involved in many school work place experience programmes, as well as being a Queen’s Scout and Scout Leader for a number of years.

I am a Chartered Engineer holding a BSc Honors Degree from the University of Aston, Birmingham. I have also supported the Mechanical Institutes Schools involvement programme. I am currently the District Secretary for District 1210 parts of the West Midlands, Shropshire and Staffordshire, having served as Club President and Club Secretary.

“I believe in providing our young people with openings to develop and succeed in their chosen fields and supporting KidsOut is an ideal opportunity to offer that special chance to many deserving individuals.”

On a personal level I have been married to Carol for 12 years and together we hope we make a difference to those we meet.
