Treasurer: Les Williams

I joined the NRHP from the NHPC at the time of the merger in 2007. Initially, I trained with McKenna Breen in NLP and hypnosis in 1995 and continued my practice development, on a part-time basis, while engaged in my CPD with CTIS on the pathway to UKCP registration, which was completed in 2002. Previously I spent almost 20 years travelling in an international business environment and enjoy cultural, religious and racial diversity. I am committed to openness and transparency, and I am happy to receive any communications with regard to the business of the NRHP.
