Fish is going back home to England to be with his family after spending most part of his adult live in Botswana. The 82-year old started his charity work more than 40-years ago when he came to Botswana to work for Bank of Botswana. He later joined Barclays before retiring to focus on charity.

Fish has been notable recognised for his relentless advocacy for the deaf while under the Botswana Society for the Deaf (BSD).
