Activities
Like most people, I never seem to find enough time to enjoy all my interests — but I still try! Here are some of the activities that continue to bring purpose, fun, and energy to my life.
🌱 Environment
Protecting the environment and building a sustainable future has always been important to me. It's a deep and ongoing commitment.
🚲 Cycling
I discovered club cycling at 17 and it became a lasting passion — fresh air, exercise, and great company all in one ride.
🏸 Badminton
Introduced to me in school, badminton has been a source of friendly competition and regular fitness ever since.
🐔 Chickens
A gift of two Silkies as a toddler turned into a family of chickens that brought me endless fascination and delight.
🎵 Music
Music has always moved me. My first Yamaha synth opened the door to sound creation and composition that still inspires me.
🎥 Filmmaking
From school experiments to larger projects, filmmaking lets me tell meaningful stories in imaginative ways.
💻 Computers
From my school days onward, computing has shaped both my personal interests and professional life. I still get a thrill from solving problems with code.
👨🏫 Working with Children
Challenging at times, but always rewarding. Supporting young people has been one of the most meaningful parts of my life.
💡 Other Interests
Including Star Trek & Doctor Who, vegetarianism, gardening, teaching, community projects, and campaigning for electoral reform.
