Tim Roberts

Not quite fully retired from being a temporary works design engineer in the construction industry, I have three grown-up sons (two in their 40s and one getting there) all happily married and living in Seoul, South Korea, South Windsor, NSW, Australia and Oxfordshire, (UK of course, and no further!).
I live in Rugby having moved there from Peterborough in 2009, when my wife, Gill, became a lecturer in Early Years Education at Birmingham City University. We were married for 40 years but she died of cancer in 2017.
I have been a member of O2H since 2008 and have appreciated the diversity of projects we have been able to support, and the range of individual needs met.
