Ted Carless (Shrigley 1946-53)
When Ted left Shrigley in 1953 he still had over half his Salesian life ahead of him at Burwash, Ingersley Hall, Chertsey and Cowley. When he left the Salesians in 1961 the last thing he wanted to do was teach. However, he was destined to spend most of his life in education - secondary, further, adult and, for many years, penal education. But after taking early retirement in 1989 he still works for himself.
PS In the midst of all the above work, there have also been some play-times!
