In 2019, he played a key part in Fidelity celebrating Pride in Bermuda and he regularly supports by helping with internal events and awareness building initiatives.

He comments: "Fidelity is proud to celebrate Pride here in Bermuda and I am personally delighted to support as executive sponsor. Being an active and committed sponsor and supporter of Fidelity's LGBT+ agenda is the least I can do personally to help ensure fundamental fairness is afforded everyone within our firm and the communities we are a part of. I am excited about the progress made and even more excited about a future where diversity, choice and inclusiveness is available to everyone everywhere. Visibility is important in locations where not everyone receives the same level of equality and acceptance. This is why I am proud to support LGBT Great's campaign."
