Nick Ralls has been General Manager of both SVR(H) and the Guarantee Company since 25 June 2007. The new GM’s arrival would be less than one week after the worst event in SVR history, the 2007 Storm Damage.[1]. The previous incumbent Colin Binch was succeeded by a group of three volunteers before Mr Ralls was appointed.
