About My Practice

His passions include his family, supporting his sons, friends, super cars, presenting and acting with local drama groups and watching most small ball sports. An aging back means that Christopher no longer plays many of them!

He is regularly called on to MC events and loves the theatre, cinema, eating out, good food and red wine--Spanish Rioja, Faustino 1 being a very favourite choice.

Christopher plays golf with a passion off a handicap of 10 at Harewood Downs Golf Club and Scuba Dives when he can, being qualified to the level of Rescue Diver.

Christopher raises vast sums of money for various Charities by participating in Charity Fund Raising Challenges and organising Charity Fund Raising Balls for which he continues to chair organising committees. Over the years Christopher has developed a varied and well-established client base working in the personal and corporate markets. Business derives from existing clients, professional connections, recommendations, and referrals. He has now worked continuously with some clients for over 25 years.
