WHAT DOES THIS INVOLVE:
Maintaining our ‘Excellent Authority’ status, and setting the standards for the fire and rescue service for the future.
INTERESTING FACT ABOUT YOURSELF:
I once won a Bruce Forsythe gameshow – Takeover Bid in 1990! I won my show to go through to the final to win a luxury holiday but got the last question wrong. It was which comedian was known as the ‘Cheeky Chappie’, I said Tommy Trinder but the right answer was Max Miller – I’ve never forgotten it since!

Firehouse Cook Off. I think it will be a great fun event and something really different, plus a good opportunity to show off our North West foods.
FAVOURITE THING ABOUT LIVERPOOL:
It’s got to be the Liverpool sense of humour!
SOMETHING PEOPLE MUST DO DURING THEIR TRIP TO THE CITY:
Definitely take a trip on a Mersey Ferry or venture down into the fascinating Williamson Tunnels, a well-kept secret attraction!
