David Dodgeon (L66/70) talks about his time since leaving King's and his new yoga ventures!

David is an OBA who left King’s in the summer of 1970.  Qualifying as an accountant he worked in the advertising industry for some 15 years including a stint at Saatchi & Saatchi for 3 years.  He then successfully set up a communications agency with two other colleagues which they managed for three years before they sold it in 1994.  This led to the opportunity for David to relocate back to the West Country with his young family.  He and Lynda bought a C16th Farmhouse on the edge of Dartmoor, outside the village of Cheriton Bishop and this is where they still live.

David then became involved in the travel industry and had another business organising corporate travel to sub–Saharan Africa.  Using this knowledge, and with his passion for Zimbabwe particularly, (where he also does some voluntary work), he and his yoga teaching wife Lynda arrange an annual trip to Victoria Falls and Hwange.  This will be their 5th trip! Please take a look at the “Yoga Safari” Tab which has the itinerary on their web site – www.lewdonbarn.co.uk and contact us if you would like to join us.
