I have a saying "you have probably been in one of the buildings we have built" Scotland, England, Wales, Iceland, Many many interesting projects all over the UK, Back in Derby, home turf, and in particular Pride Park, I built and project managed the Clough Taylor statue, in memory of Brian Clough and Peter Taylor. A "fly on the wall" documentary about the building of the statue was made by Derby County and I was very proud to be involved. 

Who would have thought when I left building school i would end up meeting the Queen !! From Bricklayer to meeting the Queen !!! It was at the opening of The Armed Forces memorial in Staffordshire. My company, my expertise, were the reasons we were chosen to build out the structure and stone work on this project. Again filmed as a fly on the wall documentary from start to finish, massive media present, fantastic opportunity for me and my company. 

Charity is at our heart and recently carried out a "make over" our own DIYSOS of a community centre for underprivileged kids in Derby. I was helped by 300 strong local cummiunity and trades , a great couple of days, and an awesome achievement in completing the build for the Children. I also champion youngsters and a lot of the work was done by trainees from Derby College Using the media awearness I try and put youngsters forward for work. 

I am in many respects an ambassador for apprentices  and i am looking to set up my own Building and Bricklaying Acadamy.
