Married to his lovely wife Joy since 1976, with three brilliant, now generally self-supporting children, Adrian assumed the mantle of Church Secretary in January 2008: he certainly felt the hand of God in the move into secretaryship and trusts that it will be a good experience for all concerned.
Some preparation for the role has come from an enjoyable 30 years in teaching (early retirement in 2006 - thanks!) preceded by a couple of years in social work, alongside 20 years in the TA which included a spell in the Regular Army in the 1970's.
