Tim was born in Loughborough, both of this parents were singers of church music. His father was one of six brothers in the Loughborough All Saints Parish Church choir. His mother was the daughter of a family of butchers in Market Place, Mountsorrel, which is where he grew up.

Tim attended primary and secondary school in Mountsorrel, then transferred to Loughborough College School and obtained the London School Certificate. He left school at the age of sixteen and joined the family retail business in Loughborough where he has worked all his life, except for two years National Service in the army, mainly in Germany. He retains an interest in the German language and likes to visit on holiday and converse (although the Germans seem very eager to practice their English nowadays!)

He married his wife, Pat in 1960 and moved to Quorn. They have three daughters, two sons, four granddaughters and three grandsons.

Tim stood for the Parish Council because of his concerns over creeping industrialisation, and the need to keep the green wedges between towns and villages. He also felt, and still feels the need to improve local facilities wherever possible.

He is a trustee of Quorn Conservative Club and a committee member of Quorn Townlands Charity.
