| Introduction | I worked for over 50 years in technology strategy in the City, Health Service and Telecommunications, and in 2003 created an organic vineyard in South Somerset. Heavily involved in Local Government from 2002 to 2011. I was thrilled to be selected to stand as Liberal Democrat candidate for East Devon in 2010, but devastated when LibDems entered a full coalition with Conservatives and moved away from my principles, so now I am not a Liberal Democrat. Engaged in the NHS over my whole career, recently governor, non-executive director and projects director in Somerset and consultant to trust boards. I was Vice Chairman of Raglan Housing Association, Chairman of Raglan Developments, and I hold a PhD in Affordable Housing from University of the West of England. I have been a Princes Trust Business Mentor for many years and have found it deeply rewarding to see young people do so much with their lives. I sing in a local Male Voice Choir. MBA from London Business School, Fellow of British Computer Society, Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, Fellow of The Schumacher Institute |
