Richard’s combined experience of working on the tax affairs of entrepreneurial businesses as well as his international tax expertise makes him eminently qualified to head up one of the most highly skilled tax departments outside the country’s largest practices.

Richard is a chartered accountant, chartered tax adviser, trust and estate practitioner, maritime author and enthusiast.  He’s also provided services to the Falkland Government for the last 17 years and has visited the islands 9 times.

Richard was also Company Secratary of the former HMS Plymouth Preservation Trust which was set up to manage and run the ship in Millbay.

SWT would like to see HMS Plymouth to be located in the City that gave it its name as visitors recognise Plymouth as a naval city if not the home of the Royal Navy and expect to see evidence of this connection. We hope that the relocation can be achieved and a viable business plan developed to not only secure the ship but ensure its continued presence as an enduring visitor attraction for this famous maritime city.
