Following the last 3 years where COVID has changed our way of living I am looking forward to having face to face meetings again as well as the annual dinner in November.
Tell us one unusual fact about yourself
I am a firm believer of facing your fears, I have done this in the past by curing my fear of heights and flying by completing a tandem sky dive and also my fear of spiders as I completed a 10 day survival in a Thailand jungle for charity. This involved me sleeping in the open with all kinds of nature and visiting different orphanages taking supplies to them.
