Affiliations

I thoroughly enjoy gardening, DIY and anything arty. I am very historical with different countries and their cultures.

Sport has always been my main interest in life hence my achievements as a boxing coach for the younger generation who need a good male role model. Giving back has always been my goal in life to help young people have more confidence in life and somewhere to go instead of joining gangs.
