NATIONAL PRESIDENT 2025/2026

I joined Round Table in 2013 after finding myself without much of a social circle at the end of a difficult relationship. A friend randomly invited me along to a night out, which turned out to be with a local Round Table, and I’ve never looked back.

 

From being a founding member in London West End Round Table through to serving as Chairman of three Tables, Area Chairman, National International Relations Officer, and Chairman of the Central and Eastern European Region on the Round Table International Board, I’m committed to growing our association and giving more guys the chance to meet new people and ignite their social lives.

 

In my role as National President, I want to build on the sustained period of growth in RTBI for the first time in a generation, igniting the social lives of young men both inside our organisation already, and reaching out to those who don’t know we exist…yet! Together, with my team, I aim to continue equipping our Tables and Areas through our nationwide programme of workshops, to help each of our clubs thrive, expand and grow so that every young man in the UK has the opportunity to experience Round Table!

 

I am also immensely proud to announce that we will be supporting SpecialEffect (www.specialeffect.org.uk) as our charity for 2025-26! They transform the lives of people with physical challenges across the world through the innovative use of technology. 

 

They enable inclusion and enjoyment by helping people to unlock the magic of video games to the best of their abilities, bringing communication, independence and hope for people in intensive care units with severe injuries, and using robots to reconnect medically isolated children with their education and friends.

 

I am aiming to raise at least £75,000 for them this year by asking Round Table members to fundraise through special events and games nights, as well as raising awareness of the charity in their local communities. And I can’t wait to see the ways you get involved in supporting SpecialEffect.

 

My other loves, outside of Round Table, are video gaming, football (as a season ticket holder for the mighty Charlton Athletic!), and American Football as a Detroit Lions fan, trying to get to a game either in the UK or the US when my diary (and budget) allows - 2026 most likely!

 

I’m honoured to serve as your President this year, and build on the success we’ve been seeing across Great Britain and Ireland. Table is a huge part of my life and I want to see as many men as possible make the most of the communities and opportunities around them.

 

I can’t wait to visit as many of you as possible, and share our vision with you all. Please do invite me to your events this year and let’s make it our biggest year yet. For more info, and to book an event into my diary, please fill in the form on my page linked below


 

Yours in Table
