Although I was born in Essex, England, I was educated and spent my early life in the Republic of Ireland, only returning to England to start a career as a Graphic Designer. I discovered my true calling after volunteering for an international charity, where I enjoyed over eighteen years working within the third sector. More recently I have set up, and run, reuse and recycling companies, helping charities to raise millions of pounds in untied income whilst reducing their carbon footprints. Now self-employed I use my diverse skill set to provide a range of services, including but not limited to;

• IT Training & Support
• Graphic Design & Marketing Support
• Reuse and Recycling Guidance
• Garden Maintenance
• Property Maintenance

For pleasure, I volunteer my services for local charities/worthwhile causes, as well as maintaining my own organic kitchen garden and allotment plot. I love to learn, reading non-fiction titles whenever I’m not trawling the net. I enjoy art, but only for pleasure. I’ve run a marathon, but I’m not sporty. I love dogs, but attract all the local cats. I’ll try anything once, apart from drugs and bungee jumping. My personal goal is to make every day as productive as possible.

My youngest son wanted a cat for his birthday, the pleasure of cleaning out the litter tray and feeding her didn’t last long, so yes I’m now also cat owner!

I’m on Quora and Tripadvisor, but if I’m not helping someone, then I’m busy playing Fortnite, helping noobs complete challenges.
