New DVP for Latvia

New DVP for Latvia

We are pleased to welcome Juris Kabakovs (95-97) to our team of global District Vice Presidents (DVPs).

While studying at Bedford School, Juris’ main interests were politics, economics and computer science. As a keen sportsman, he also enjoyed playing rugby and running cross country.

After leaving Bedford, Juris moved to Moscow to study diplomacy at Moscow State University of Foregn Affairs. He then started working for an import and export company, mostly dealing in scrap metals and gas.

Juris now lives in Riga with his family and works in digital media and advertising.

“Even though my stay in England was not very long, I came to love British culture and people as well as the Bedford School community.”

Contact details of all our volunteer District Vice Presidents are available online here.
