Nick was Headmaster of King’s College School in Cambridge and helped Katharine Kent to launch Future Talent in November 2004. Music has always been a major part of Nick’s life. He enjoys singing and orchestral conducting and has founded two orchestras for young musicians, one in Sussex and one in London. Nick is also Chairman of the charity Sibling Support and is a volunteer at The Listening Place.

"We created Future Talent in 2004 to make a difference to the lives of very special and talented young musicians from challenging backgrounds but never dreamed we could achieve so much and make such an impact on their lives and the music landscape. We have had the privilege of watching many of these young people grow, not only as musicians but also into young adults with a sense of purpose, enthusiasm and confidence."
