Greetings all

I wonder if anyone knows the current whereabouts and occupation of a John Ditcham who used to work at CH, teaching German and some French in the late 1990s. He lived in Peele although then moved out to an address in Horsham. I believe he later stopped teaching children and went to teach English to adults in Germany. I was wondering how he was doing these days.

I remember him, although he never taught me. JGD if I recall?

There seems to have been a John Geoffrey Ditcham teaching English and French at Schule Marienau in northern Germany in the 00s.

Companies House has him, as of November 2022, as a board member of a Bath-based sports education company. He is listed as "Sales Manager Southern Germany". He is also the Secretary and a trustee of the Bristol Gilbert & Sullivan Operatic Society.

Genealogy records show that only one person with the exact name John Geoffrey Ditcham has ever been born in the UK - in 1968. This matches the DOB in the Companies House entry.
