Jock Gillespie Wins Christmas Princethorpe Connect Prize Draw

Congratulations to OP Dominic (Jock) Gillespie (Class of 1987), who was the lucky winner of our Princethorpe Connect Christmas Prize Draw. 

The Prize Draw saw a surge in online membership registrations to the platform, taking us over the 1,000 online member mark just before Christmas.

Jock is pictured with his prize at his home near Newcastle where he has lived since leaving Princethorpe almost 35 years ago.

Jock has worked in the Automotive and Engineering industry since leaving University specializing in HR and Employment Law.
He is married to Justine who he met at University. Jock is a keen outdoor swimmer, a hobby which has taken him far and wide including a swim across the Hellespont and one from Alcatraz to San Francisco.

Good to hear that he is still in touch with a number of people from Princethorpe, both virtually and actually, and always happy to hear from others.
