Our Trustees

Peter Abery

Peter’s career began with BT covering terrestrial microwave transmission and satellite communications, watching it evolve from an analogue domain into a largely digital one.  Aside from the technical aspects of IT & communications, Peter has a breadth of commercial experience including Programme and Contract management whilst working with many of the UK’s largest organisations.

Peter is involved with the Digital Bawdsey initiative, looking to broaden the reach and accessibility to Bawdsey’s radar story; the site’s people, heritage and secrets beyond the blast walls of the museum to engage and involve a wider UK and Global audience.

Sue Michell

Sue worked in education for 40 years.

Having previous museum volunteering experience she decided to get involved with Bawdsey Radar Group following its inclusion on the BBC Restoration programme in 2004.  She has been a Trustee since 2010 and her IT experience is now put to good use which includes keeping the website up to date.

Graham Murchie

Graham has been involved in radio, both professionally and as a licensed Radio Amateur, for over 50 years. He was involved in developing the first digital terrestrial microwave links for BT in the 1970s.

He has experience as both a Chairman and CEO of small/medium sized companies and has recently been involved in an organisation that relies on significant volunteer help.  Graham is the current Chair of Bawdsey Radar.

Clare Sullivan

Originally from Lincolnshire, Clare spent 35 years teaching History in Suffolk Schools. Since retiring five years ago she has followed up her ongoing interest in the defensive features of the Suffolk landscape by volunteering at BRT. She is keen to develop learning opportunities for young people based around the unique resources of the Transmitter Block.

Kevin Sullivan

Kevin started his career as a Chartered Accountant and moved into IT Project Management looking after major projects for the likes of National Grid, British Gas Business and Anglian Water. Following semi-retirement he took to volunteering for Bawdsey Radar and several other local organisations.
