We moved to the village 34 years ago in 1990 and during this time we raised our two children who attended Hall Orchard Primary School and Humphrey Perkins before moving onto Rawlins Academy.

I was involved with the local Neighbourhood Watch from the start in the early 1990s to around 2017 and during some of this period I acted as Treasurer and later Chairman.

I recently retired from a career in Banking and Financial Services and now have time to become more involved with the community and wish to give some time, and hopefully some of my commercial experience, back to the village that has become our home.
