The son of the founder of the Littlewoods empire, he has been chairman and director of the family firm but is best known for his work in the cultural field.

The Foundation also supports recordings of operas in English translation, the visual arts, and charitable causes in Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean. Not surprisingly, opera features large in Peter Moores 's personal musical passions.
