Keith is a recently retired police chief who spent more than 30 years in the force, stating that his greatest achievement during that time was to set up the Cultural and Communities Research Unit in London before moving to the West Midlands. He has recently had the honour of being appointed to the Youth Justice Board for England & Wales, where he will look to help Sport Birmingham connect to this agenda and demonstrate the power of sport and physical activity intervention as a diversionary and youth engagement method that works effectively. He is also Chair of the Board of Trustees for Employability UK.

Keith is committed to a busy, productive and rewarding retirement focussed on Charity work, walking holidays and family time.
