Committee member profile

Tony Sanderson

I was born in Surrey in 1954 and grew up mainly in Wimbledon. I moved to Oxford in 1972 to study Chemistry. I worked for a major multi-national in food research for many years. Subsequently, I worked in IT for a Christian Church, computerising their Accounts. I have now retired from that job and am currently studying Astronomy and Planetary Science with the Open University as well as being active in a local church.


I am currently a Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Institute of Physics as well as a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society.


I became interested in classical music whilst at school and have always had an interest in less well known symphonic music, such as the symphonies of Havergal Brian, of whose eponymous Society I am a life member. I am a member of the Northampton RMS.
