John G
My working life was 50 years of software development in various forms. Unsurprisingly, 50 years ago software development was VERY different to software development today. After those years of seeing software being developed I thought I ought to try to make a positive contribution to people’s lives – and so became a Walk & Talk volunteer as I can walk and I can certainly talk.
