My installation as Master on Saturday 5th April 2025 was held at Margam Orangery and Abbey near Port Talbot and it proved to be a great venue. Intentionally, this ceremony was set outside of Cardiff in acknowledgement that we are a pan Wales charitable organisation. It was great to see that so many had made the effort to celebrate this occasion with me.

The Livery Company’s strapline is “Nurturing Welsh Talent” and we do this through over 50 awards and bursaries each year to young Welsh people within the arts, science and technology.

As Master, I am also keen to promote greater resilience and social cohesion within our society. It is why there were representatives of various faiths and community leaders at my installation.

The hallmark of any Livery Company is to promote fraternity, love and compassion and we must ensure that this extends to our wider community.

I am truly honoured to be the new Master of the Worshipful Livery Company of Wales and look forward to sharing the year ahead with you.
