Philip was a well-respected businessman, having established an Estate Agency through which he has offered his support, guidance and advice to many people over the years. He was also devoted to charitable causes, serving as Area Chairman of Round Table in the 1990s and, more recently, as President of Aberystwyth Rotary, raising funds for numerous local charities.
