New Assistant Secretary Appointed

After been christened in Sherborne Abbey aged nine days old, it seemed inevitable that my love of historic buildings, especially cathedrals, would develop so strongly. 

Having been brought up in an idyllic country environment in the Wylye Valley my two passions of farming and historic monuments were covered.

Now, I am in the enviable position of having one of the best views from a desk in Salisbury overlooking the north porch of the Cathedral as your new Assistant Secretary.

We are all looking forward to spending our first Christmas based in Salisbury and being involved with the Cathedral and with The Friends, which after the well attended “Friends Day” in September, I quickly realised is a very unique family.
