Ok, so this is a blog by me, Graham Martin…why, well, why not! They’re my thoughts and don’t necessarily represent friends, families, companies or charities that I am associated with but we are all allowed our opinion!
Posted here will be a collection of things that stand out to me, links to things I am working on or involved with and the odd brain dump that I fancy sharing with everyone! If you don’t like what I have written please feel free to comment, but let’s not get into big arguments about it :)
I am a born again Christian and that will/may come out through my writings here, so if I say things like ‘Thank God’, ‘I’ll Pray about it’ etc etc then I actually mean it, not just one of those phrases!
So there you have it, Graham’s blog of … well possibly nothing but on the other hand … possibly EVERYTHING!

I’ve lived in Sussex since I was 10 and after schooling here headed off to Portsmouth University to study for a Masters in Computer Engineering.
I currently run my own IT Consultancy business (Brandstar UK Limited) for local home & small business users across the local area.
I am a committed Christian as I have already said, heavily involved at Storrington Community Church particularly in leading the youth groups. Originally when I was asked to go to church with my parents I was dead against it and I was convinced I would prove the big bang theory against creation…but even my stubbornness couldn’t deny the truth! Best decision I’ve ever made, doesn’t mean it made life easy or anything like this but God is Great!
I am a Trustee of a local Children’s Charity Splash! (full name Splash for Schools and Communities) that works in local schools taking assemblies, RE lessons, Lunch Clubs, After Schools Clubs and their very popular Holiday Clubs. When possible I like to volunteer for their after-school clubs and holiday clubs!
I am also a Trustee of Family Foundations Trust which runs a local Christian Conference Centre Dalesdown. Dalesdown Camps have had a huge impact on the lives of many of the young people that go to Storrington church and many others. It is a truly amazing and blessed place with an incredible view over the local countryside it is a great place to get away for the busy world with a church group or any other group that wants to hire the place out for training, retreat etc.
In my free time (appears now and then), I love spending time with friends, anything from the pub to cinema, going for walks or playing football or squash. I am also a bit of an F1 fanatic, and was lucky enough to go to the first ever Singapore Grand Prix! I also have the travel bug…over the last few years I have had the privilege of traveling to Austria, Switzerland, Africa (Capetown), Singapore, New York and Florida. My favorite has to be Singapore, I could go back there every year!
