  • Joe Jones

    < Back Joe Jones I.T Trainer I have always worked in I.T. throughout my career, which enabled me to set up a computer business, which I ran successfully for over 10 years, I am also a trained HGV driver. In 2009 I moved abroad for 7 years and lived in Brussels, Belgium. This allowed me quality time bringing up my 3 boys, now men - which I missed, having to work long hours during their early years. Myself and the kids moved back to the UK in 2016, and I soon began working within the NHS in I.T. for the Community District Nurses, from this I have gained this position working with Primary Care Academy. I live with my wife Melanie and between us have 7 children (kidults), very busy household !! Any of our spare time (if any!) consists of running around for the kids and walking our pet child "Buddy the Schnoodle".
