Formally Chief Executive of Your Homes Newcastle, an ALMO which managed over 30,000 homes on behalf of Newcastle City Council, John has an abundance of skills and knowledge to oversee Keelman Homes.
John has had a long career in housing, regeneration, and public service, and this was recognised when he earned an OBE for offering an outstanding contribution to the City of Newcastle upon Tyne.
At Keelman, John works closely with the Board of Trustees and Managing Director, planning and striving to deliver the best outcomes for Keelman tenants and the Charity.
In his spare time, John supports another local Charity, Mary Magdalene and Holy Jesus Trust, where he oversees a diverse portfolio of supported housing, and when he finds the time, he enjoys a round or two of golf!
