Trustees
Our trustees are elected by our members (the vast majority of whom are volunteers). They individually serve for a period of three years when they are eligible for re-election up to a total of three consecutive terms.
Andrew is a Chartered Accountant with 20 years’ experience in the profession, followed by 20 years at Director and CEO level in UK Law firms.
Gary joined WEXP in 2021. Prior to that he had been a volunteer lock keeper with the CRT at Marsworth. Gary still works full time as a property surveyor so his crewing availability is mainly limited to weekends. He qualified as Skipper last year and regularly gets involved with our Young Carers weekends.
Ian has been a volunteer since 2015 and is currently a skipper on our largest boat – Sheldrake 3.
Before retiring, Ian was a commercial/finance director for a events management company organising corporate events globally. He owns his own boat on which he has travelled extensively throughout England and Wales. He also spent many years involved with the Scout Association, both as a “coal-face” leader and a leader trainer.

Chris has been involved with WEXP since 2016.
I have crewed and skippered on many trips on all the boats and have crewed on quite a number of Enable trips. I led the WEXP Crewing Logistics team for a number of years and completely changed the way it worked with increased automation and efficiency that removed the slow processing and errors that used to occur and continue to be involved with the WEXP IT team helping to look after the various Google based systems that we use. Before retiring back in 2017, I was employed by many companies in IT roles, at one stage running my own company, finally ending up managing a high-level worldwide support team for a large American IT company.
