GDPR

I have lived in Stoke Golding since 2010, moving here to raise a family with my wife Lydia and our now 4 boys. Three of these currently attend St Margaret's with one yet to start. I therefore have a vested interest in the long term success of the school.

I work for a construction materials company as an Area Manager.

I enjoy running and have a strong interest in football.
