About Rob
Outside of work, Rob enjoys playing both Masters Rugby League and Veterans Rugby Union and has also dabbled in sprint-distance triathlon events. He enjoys attending comedy and live music gigs and plays both the bass guitar and drums, although, by his own admission, with more enthusiasm than skill.
Rob is also passionate about supporting charitable causes and is a Trustee of Oak Tree Animals’ Charity in Wetheral. He regularly helps raise money through rugby events, supporting charities including Wooden Spoon Children’s Charity, as well as a number of cancer and MND charities through Cumbria Rugby Union Veterans and Masters Rugby League events.
“I just wanted to say thank you for helping us” and “being super responsive” “and for always making the time to talk to me if I needed your help. You've been awesome!”
