Personal Interests
When not at work, Nick is a volunteer on the Severn Valley Railway, which is a preserved heritage railway. He is very interested in and devotes a lot of spare time to researching the law relating to the railway industry. Disputes surrounding The Rule Book and related RAIB bulletins and investigations are of particular interest. If your work takes you to this specific area of law, Nick would very much like to come and talk to you.
Nick is accredited by the Professional Association of Diving Instructors as a Master Instructor. He has completed in excess of 5,000 dives worldwide and has certified over 250 students. The law surrounding SCUBA diving is therefore also of great interest to Nick and he would love to expand his practice in this area.
A member of the Magic Circle, Nick regularly attends events and seminars nationally, as well as having a bee apiary in his back garden. Nick also flies his own Piper-PA28 aircraft. He has a night, instrument (r) and Flying Instructor rating.
