Hands - ChairmanAbout Roger:
Roger
Hands was born in Edmonton but has lived in Boxmoor for over forty years. He became
a Box Moor Trustee in 1979 and in the same year became a founder member of the
Dacorum Museum Advisory Committee, acting as its Exhibitions' Convener. He has
always had a wide interest in both local history and environmental matters, at
the same time as running a successful landscape gardening business from 1963 to
2006. He is currently the Chairman of Dacorum Heritage Trust (DHT). He also serves
on the committees of the Ashridge Estate and the Chiltern Society. Roger is the
joint author, together with his wife Joan, of several books about Boxmoor and
has contributed to many DHT publications. He spends many hours, now that he is
retired, on these important projects, but also finds time to visit his family
who live in the USA and Holland. |

Croft - IT DirectorAbout John:
John
Croft graduated with a degree in chemical engineering in 1963 and, soon after,
started work at the Kodak processing plant in Hemel Hempstead. His career at Maylands
Avenue lasted for eight years, when he transferred to technical support for motion
pictures and television marketing at Kodak House. He worked both in the UK and
abroad, fixing problems and introducing new products to film and TV companies.
After retirement in 1993, he continued to work for several years as a consultant
in the same industry. In the late nineties, he became interested in volunteer
work for DHT, after meeting Mike Stanyon. He has since been an invaluable member of the committee, maintaining and running the IT equipment, thereby saving DHT hundreds of pounds. |
