Ian Sugden

Car Valet & Cleaner

Ian joined State of Grace in Feb 2015 and works every Thursday. Besides being diligent he has a great eye for detail and we can rely on him to keep our vehicles, office and grounds in tip top condition.

Ian keeps busy with 2 other jobs – he is a support worker helping persons with a variety of disabilities to attain more independence in their lives.

He also teaches English to ESOL students in an evening class & does private tutoring.

These jobs really suit Ian as he is patient, kind, and very friendly.

As well as keeping physically fit  grooming our cars, Ian keeps in shape running and hiking and when time allows he enjoys mellowing out with a great book.

He lives with his partner Anne and has a teenage son attending Auckland Grammar School.
