Geoff and his wife, Sandra, moved to Potterne in September 2017 and joined Devizes and District u3a soon after. They are both retired primary school teachers and taught in Basingstoke for over 30 years each. Geoff was a deputy headteacher at a Church of England Primary School. In retirement he developed his interest of social history by researching family and local history. He enjoys giving presentations of his research and has had several articles published on-line.
He wanted to give back something to Devizes u3a as he had benefitted so much in a relatively short time so volunteered to join the committee and became Chairman in June 2022.
