Tim is a member of the Arsenal Supporters' Trust Board, and has been co-opted to  the AISA committee primarily to help and advise on Arsenal governance and ownership issues, and to assist with liaison between AST and AISA.

Tim grew up in Islington, where he attended Highbury Grove Comprehensive. He became a season ticket holder at age eleven in 1984 - the first year that season tickets were introduced for juniors - then costing £25 for the entire season (the seat he now sits in costs twice that for one match!).

Tim is a Director at Mandate Communications, Britain's leading corporate and public affairs consultancy where he heads its Sports Advocacy service. He has acted as an advisor to many sports governing bodies including the FA, England and Wales Cricket Board, Rugby Football Union and the Premier League. He also established sportsthinktank.com, the country's first think tank dedicated to sports policy issues.
