In their own words
Richard Farr is a proud lifelong Croydon local who grew up in the community and continues to call it home with his wife. Richard’s values were shaped early on - his dad was a technician for the state-owned SEC and his mum is a disability sector worker - both instilling in him the importance of governments investing in families.
