Raymond Hunt was born in the mining village of Stairfoot, near Barnsley in South Yorkshire. At seven years of age the family moved to Dudley in the West Midlands. His first job when leaving school was as a print room junior draughtsman. He joined the RAF in 1944, was posted overseas to India in 1945 and was demobbed in 1948.
