Ray Hagger
Technical Manager - Newark Works
Ray has all hands on deck, in Bath, with military precision, following on from his days in the Queen’s Guard. There is nothing he can’t turn his hand to from installing new wi-fi systems, to making furniture out of old pews. He loves to go walking and camping in his spare time.

Cress Williams
Board Advisor
Cressida joined TCN an Advisor to Board in 2022, having watched TCN grow since its inception. As her main day job (!), Cress is CFO of Redweel, a €20bn global investment management business. Her career responsibilities have been broad but Finance has always been at the heart of it & a calculator is never very far from hand! She’s a wife, and mum of 3 active boys. She loves escaping to the mountains, skis in hand, with friends or family when time allows & is amid a major home renovation! Cress is quite literally one of a kind.
We are fuelled by passion. A dedicated team that not only plays hard but also works hard, we are always willing to support one another. Together, we form a community with camaraderie at the heart of it.
