Richard Boucher

Richard has worked for Anglian Water Group for most of his career and is currently Strategic Development Director within Anglian Venture Holdings and a Director of the main operational subsidiary businesses. Richard has a wide range of experience, from day to day operations through to developing and delivering commercial and strategic projects. His current role involves commercial support to a range of businesses and the strategic development of growth and market opportunities in the UK and Ireland.

Having been diagnosed with RA in 2015, the NRAS website was one of the first sites Richard visited to understand more about RA. Recognising the benefit NRAS gives to those newly diagnosed with RA he is keen to support and contribute to our work. Richard has been very active in charity work, chairing Anglian Water’s WaterAid fundraising committee since 2011 and as a Board member of the Beacon Project (a programme to improve water, sanitation and hygiene in the town of Lahan – working with the Nepalese Government, Nepal Water Supply Corporation, WaterAid Nepal, the Lahan Municipality and Anglian Water) – experience he hopes will also benefit NRAS.

Richard is married with four children, and is keen to remain as active as possible – enjoying most sports, especially cycling, swimming and rock climbing.
