I commenced my Masonic career in 2002 when I joined my mother Lodge Heortnesse No 4639. After progressing through all the floor officer roles I was made Worshipful Master in January 2010. After further years supporting my Lodge, including a year as treasurer and other minor roles including filling in for other officers, this year I have taken the position of Junior Warden in the Lodge. I joined the Haven of Rest Lodge No 4350 in 2005 and was quickly promoted through several chairs becoming Worshipful Master in 2008 & again in 2011. After my second term as IPM I became the Lodge Charity Steward, a position which I continue to hold successfully. Following to my Mastership of the Haven of Rest Lodge and my continued support of both my lodges I was promoted to PPSGD in 2015. Furthermore, I was made a Companion of the St Helens Chapter No 511 and after being Z in 2016 I am due to complete my year as IPZ in March 2018. I also joined the Nevill Lodge of Installed Master No 9442 in 2017.
In my private life I have been married to Judith for 18 years and she is the biggest supporter of my Masonic career to date. She is a wonderful Mason’s wife supporting the Masons through participation at Quiz nights, mixed dining and other Masonic functions. We both thoroughly enjoyed organising and attending her 3 formal ladies nights during my terms as Worshipful Master.
In my professional life I am an experienced, highly qualified Health and Safety Professional. I currently work for a north east NHS Foundation Trust and I am based at a hospital in Durham. I have many years experience within Public and Private Organisations and thoroughly enjoy my career. I am also Vice Chair of Governors at a local primary school in Hartlepool.
In my spare time I enjoy keeping fit, socialising with family and friends, attending the theatre, visiting National Trust Properties and holidays abroad.
