IJF Committee 2025

Noel Blake
President

You may have seen me at festivals with a large video camera, doing one of the things I have a passion for. I ran my own electrical contracting company for many years before retiring and moving to Inverloch. I bring a range of technical and organisational skills to the team and the Inverloch Jazz Festival.

Peter Jones
Vice-President

 I was born in New Zealand and met my Australian wife in Scotland while travelling in the 1970s. We settled in Melbourne, where I followed a career in IT working as a project manager for IBM. On retirement we moved to Inverloch for our final 'forever home', the best move we have made. I am now part of a number of community organisations, including Red Cross and BlazeAid. I support a computer program I wrote for the Inverloch Community Center and also do a shift at the Bass Coast Information Center. In joining IJF I hope I can help with contacts and learn new skills.

Terence Bayley
Vice-Treasurer

I have 20 years of finance background behind me, mostly in business  banking.  Then I took the jump to a local small business in Inverloch, where I was asked to join this committee to give a local small business perspective.  I have a passion for good food, coffee and wine, and look forward to  giving back to the local community.

I trained as a scientist but worked in computing from the early days of the Internet. Today I consult and build websites, but my main focus is writing. My maritime non-fiction has won awards and I also write historical and modern fiction - see seabooks.net. I came to South Gippsland in 2009 and have lived in Foster, Inverloch and Korumburra. I love all kinds of music, jazz especially, and joined the committee in 2017.
