Read their story

JV Collier broke with family tradition by migrating to Australia. His father, grand-father and great grand-father had all served as Mayor of Northampton. A geophysicist by profession, he retrained as an anaesthetic technician after the downturn in exploration in the 1970's and worked at RPH until his retirement.
