Tricia Hay

Owner Director

When she's not in the office or being "mum" Tricia can be found out and about walking the gorgeous Lola (the family Cockapoo) or working out to try and keep the years at bay.

Since founding First Base in 1997, Tricia has also devoted significant time to many social and community causes.

A firm believer that a business should be based on responsible and ethical principles, Tricia is really proud of the contribution that the First Base team makes to local and national causes.

David Tovey

Director

There can be no doubt where David likes to spend his free time. A private pilot for nearly 30 years,
his love of all thing aviation means he can be regularly found ‘slipping the surly bonds of earth’ to fly
out of Gloucester Airport.

From float plane flying in the USA to aerobatics over the Blue Mountains in Australia and recently even paragliding in the Swiss Alps – if David could have chosen any career, it would definitely have been in aviation.

Russell Hay

Director

One of the few Scots not to have an addiction to golf, Russ loves running and enjoys getting out in the countryside at lunchtimes.

With many years’ experience at the leading edge of the IT industry, Russ is the First Base guru who patiently sorts out the problems initiated by those of us on the team who are more technologically ‘challenged’!
