Ian ParkerIan Parker - Youth Mentor, ian@youthquest.co.nz

Ian has been with Youth Quest since September 2009. He also lives in Bulls as a result of his heart dragging him towards one of Dave’s daughters.

Also known as Bart and Mac2 he has become a valuable member of the team with his expertise in his work as a youth mentor.

We expect him to get over his love sickness shortly but we are not holding our breath.

Terry is currently working on a hair restoring product and if successful he will retire on the proceeds. Terry is married to May and they have four awesome children.
