Founder Trustee (Chair)
I am not really keen to recommend people in the building industry but Mr Bolger is different, with both a strong academic background he has turned several business into prosperous and thriving communities for both clients and staff. His wide and diverse experience serves him well and makes him the exception to the building expert rule.
January 8, 2015, Dr. Alan was with another company when working with Darren at Justice on Appeal (Registered Charity)"
(Mr Bolger is one for the understated recommendation: "Derek Williamson Principal Derek is an accountant and financial advisor like no other. When saying that he goes the extra mile is by no means enough. Derek would put his life on the line and has done for the sake of Justice and in delivery of very detailed advice and assistance. His honesty and integrity stand alone. For those lucky enough to have Derek supporting their business assets and future financial planning, you will only receive the highest level of guidance and professional opinion. He's a very likeable and trusted person also and again, the levels of trust that Derek holds cannot be given a value.

"A judge who reprimanded a solicitor-advocate for 'dressing like something out of Harry Potter' has been cleared by investigators.
The Judicial Conduct Investigations Office (JCIO) today dismissed complaints against His Honour Judge David Wynn Morgan.
The circuit judge was sitting at Cardiff Crown Court last August when he told Alan Blacker (pictured) after a trial that the solicitor-advocate was dressed ‘like something out of Harry Potter’.
He scolded Blacker, who wore a medal and badges sewn onto his gown, in front of the jury and press and added that ‘If you ever appear before this court again dressed as you are I shall exercise my right to decline to hear you’.
Blacker, based at the Joint Armed Forces Legal Services in Rochdale, complained at what he described as judicial bias.
But the JCIO today said complaints about Morgan’s conduct should be dismissed entirely.
In a statement, the office added: ‘The Lord Chancellor and the President of the Queen’s Bench Division found that HHJ Morgan was entitled to challenge the appearance and status as a legal representative of Mr Alan Blacker, also known as Lord Harley and this did not amount to misconduct.
‘HHJ Morgan has been issued with informal advice regarding how to deal with such situations in future. This is not, however, a form of rebuke or disciplinary sanction.’
The story created enormous interest in the national and trade media after Blacker accused the judiciary of ‘snobbery’.
Last August, Blacker explained that his family has a hereditary title going back more than 1,100 years. When he appears in the magistrates’ and county courts, he said he used the name Dr Alan Blacker, as he received a D Phil in law with economics.
‘Everyone is equal in those courts,’ he told the Gazette. ‘But when I appear in the Crown court I come up against senior and treasury counsel, so I use my title.’
