Front of house

I work at front of house offering you a warm and compassionate welcome to WOSPS. My background is Sales and Marketing with a major media organisation, and I took early retirement on health grounds.

Being a husband, father and grandfather, I bring an understanding to my role as I have suffered from psychological distress and therefore have first hand knowledge of what it feels like to be ill. This experience gives me insight into the distress experienced by our clients.
