Meet one of our newest members and Deputy President, Charlie Pearson.

Why did you join JCI Barnsley?

After finishing university and going to America I have friends all over the country and world but not many of them seem to be in Barnsley! That combined with a few personal problems over the last few years seem to have taken a toll on my confidence and that is something I need what trying to start a business.

What are you looking for out of membership of JCI?

I'm hoping to meet loads of new people and build up my confidence and get involved as much as I can.

What do you get up to in your spare time?

In my spare time I love to read or I go to a karate class two to three times a week.
