Neil Ruddell

I was appointed to the CCS Disability Action Northland Branch Local Executive committee in 2000. I have been chair of the LEC committee since 2002.

I grew up on a Northland dairy farm. After working as an employee of the Bank of New Zealand and other local businesses for a few years, I joined Russell Turner Chartered Accountants in 1987, becoming a partner in 1990.

I am married to Diane and we have three children and two grandchildren.
