Roger Millman died earlier this year. He was a key figure in the early development of the Bridge Trust. The Trust had many problems in the early days and it is a mark of his success in overcoming them in concert with Bob Wykes, David Gilpin and Niall Willis that the Trust has grown to be a major provider of accommodation and care for homeless single people in West Kent. Roger's wife, Jean, worked for the Trust after Roger stood down.
Roger kept abreast of and supported the Trust's activities after he stood down. I recall spending some very cold evenings on 'guard duty' with Roger during the annual Trust sleep-outs in car park in Tonbridge.
