Kevin Salmon

Deputy Chair

I was born in Whangarei with all my school years spent in Whangarei as well. My first job as at a local travel agency was a career I would enjoy for the next 24 years. I have always been involved in sports administration with holding longtime positions in golf and cricket. I am a Charter member of the Rotary Club of Whangarei Sunrise, which is just over 34 years old.

I served at Alzheimers Northland as GM for 11 years, and was asked to be inaugural Chairperson of the Northland DHB Consumer Council, a role I would hold for 6 years.

I have served on numerous charitable boards and committees and was excited to be invited to join the KHVCT board.

I am very much looking forward to sharing my knowledge to benefit Northlanders.
