Extra information:

Long term resident of Uganda. Can address wide range topics requiring African or Third World perspective. Clients have included Times of London & Financial Times for articles. Also all major advertising companies and most large companies in Uganda for photography using Canon Eos professional equipment. Weekly column in Ugandan national newspaper on socio-cultural issues, and another in The East African newspaper on sport. With wife Sue, form strong husband and wife journalistic team. Although British, we pride ourselves on our range of Ugandan friends and contacts, and our easy/relaxed relationship with Ugandans. We live at a fairly basic level in the community, and therefore readily know, or can tap into, Ugandan/African perspectives on issues. We are qualified athletics coaches, and have involved ourselves in issues such as HIV/AIDS and tobacco/health.
