After losing his wife, Harry reconnected with an old friend and found purpose testing donated electrical goods.
This story
Harry worked in electrical safety testing and cared full-time for his wife until she died in March 2019. Walking past a charity shop in Watford, he recognised a former colleague through the window and agreed to volunteer. He now spends two to three mornings a week testing and rewiring donated appliances at home so they can be sold safely.
