I am a former software engineer and company director. After what most would consider as a breakdown, after years of being depressed by this inhuman system, I have left the rat race to pursue a perma-culture life style. I now recycle tenaciously (which is not the art of putting used materials into a green coloured bin, but reusing such materials in diverse ways).

I've lived in Winslow for two and a half years and am interested in making our lovely little town more sustainable and resilient.

In my day job I manage a youth arts charity in Oxfordshire called OYAP Trust where we support young people to grab hold of creative opportunities and exceed their own expectations.
