"I was voted in as President on the 17 July 2011. I was very nervous as I am a terribly shy person at times. I was fortunate that I had a strong Executive Committee behind me and two Vice Presidents, Mr Christopher Batt and Mr Ian Williams who, even though they didn’t want to become President themselves, worked diligently to support me and the Chamber at all times. These same people, along with the rest of the Executive Committee have continued to support me and the Chamber through some very interesting times."
