I'm male and happily married with three grown-up boys. A former typographer and graphic designer, I worked for many years for charities, church groups and health care organisations – after which I spent some time working as a web designer in the education sector.

My interest is now in researching my family and writing about the British abolitionist movement. I still work on web design, and am seeking to eventually implement a standards-based approach to my own site.

I now work as a civil servant for the UK government, and am looking forward to being able to further pursue my various interests in retirement.
