Tony Giddings

Tony is the finance director for the family business and works with his father, two brothers and his sister, which means that he says what he thinks and does not suffer bureaucracy gladly!

Tony is a member of the Prosthetic Strategic Supply Group (PSSG), which is an organisation that brings together stakeholders in the NHS Limb Deficiency Service, including commissioners, managers, clinicians, contractors and user representative organisations.

He is also a trustee of the Winchester & District Sports Association for the Disabled (WADSAD), a charity  providing sporting opportunities for the physically, visually, hearing and learning impaired. WADSAD is also instrumental in the formation and running of the Wessex Wyverns Swimming Squad, which provides young disabled people with an opportunity to take part in competitive swimming, including galas, national and international competitions.



Mandy Giddings


As a woman, Mandy is fully capable of multitasking, she is a full-time mum, charity director, part-time school librarian and competition manager for the Wessex Wyverns.

A former personal assistant, she is well equipped to deal with the day to day running of the office as well as all of her other commitments. Mandy is usually the first point of contact for people calling the charity - but don't let that put you off!

As the mum of an amputee, she has a personal understanding of the challenges that limb loss and limb deficiency adds to family life. She usually has the answers to the 101 questions that parents have about everyday life with an impaired child, and if not, can normally find the answer.


Bob Senior, FCA

Bob is married with one daughter and is a chartered accountant, but don't hold that against him! He is a past member of Round Table, until he got too old! He tries to keep things calm, but is not always successful when red tape really gets going.


Eur.Ing. Geoff Wharam, C.Eng, Dip.E.E. M.I.E.E.

After several years working the electronic industry for a number of companies, Geoff emigrated from Yorkshire 30 years ago to take up a post in the 'Sunny South' as a Senior Lecturer in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. He is a family man with two children -- an unmarried daughter living nearby, and a married son with two children living in New Zealand. Geoff has always had a keen interest in theatre and is still an active member of a local amateur society. Now retired, he believes that you should make the most of life and has a keen interest in the finer things in life, such as good food, good wine and holidays.
