DIRECTOR 2017- Current
Together we can create a lively community cinema, theatre, arts, and entertainment centre in Bovey Tracey, Devon.
The King of Prussia Arts Centre will give a new lease of life to this 16th-century building, offering an art gallery and four artists’ studios, a cinema and theatre with almost 100 seats, a café bar and a high-quality restaurant.
NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 2016 – Current
Moments Café is a Social Enterprise based in the heart of Plymouth City Centre. We offer a safe environment for people to meet, eat and socialise and all of our profits go towards Memory Matters.
Memory Matters provide support for people living with dementia in our community, as well as offering FREE advice services in our Memory Matters Hub, which is located above Moments Café.
The interior of Moments Café was designed to ignite conversation; therefore, we decided to create different eras, including the 1950’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s. Our customers can then choose which time zone they would like to sit in whilst they enjoy a nice cup of coffee and reminisce.
Chairman Devon & Cornwall Region, Board Member & Member since 1990
As a National Charity whose aim is to “Give Children A Sporting Chance,” the Lords Taverners achieve this goal through a decentralised regional organisation approach. Devon & Cornwall Region has developed into one of the most consistent performers in terms of raising funds and contributing to regional causes.
The funds are raised through celebrity-supported events throughout the year. Committee members are drawn from professional companies and donate their expertise to maximise fundraising and have fun along the way!
The development of an Exeter based group to complement the successful Plymouth Committee has proved to be an excellent model for the region with shared resources and competitive members consistently extending themselves to the benefit of the charity. The role of the celebrities in supporting the events is synonymous with the perception of Lords Taverners in Devon & Cornwall and over time key individuals have played their regular part in achieving this success – Dickie Davies, John Bromley, Robert Powell, Nicholas Parsons.
Hannahs Charity Christmas Fayre
Over the period 2003-2012 Kitley House hosted the annual Christmas Fayre every November with the events team from Hannahs. From an initial use of the house, it rapidly expanded into marquees welcoming up to 1000 guests each year and making a significant contribution to charitable funds.
