I am a Circuit Steward, CLT member, our Circuit Safeguarding Officer (for more information about Safeguarding in our Circuit, check out our dedicated Safeguarding page) and a Local Preacher on Trial. I also am part of the team, working on behalf of the Circuit, to house and support our displaced Ukrainian families.

 

I am a member of Leabrook Methodist Church, where I am a Church Steward and our Eco Church Lead. I have a background in youth work, previously being both a Church and Circuit youth leader, Boys’ Brigade Officer and a leader in Girlguiding UK. Although no longer directly involved in youth work, I have a real desire to see our children and young people flourish in our churches and their voices heard. I have a passion for social justice, outreach and the Church being embedded in our communities, especially with those most in need. I am a Street Pastor in West Bromwich.

 

In my professional life I am a Project Manager in the Connexional Team, with a career spent in IT Project Management - and I bring these skills to bear in my Church life. I want to see IT and technology better used to enhance our worship and Church life, to give greater accessibility and inclusion for all, and to enable us to embrace new styles of worship.

 

I am Black Country born and bred – and very proud of our shared history, heritage and community! I want our churches and our Circuit to thrive, to be of real service to our communities, and to open the door to allow people to encounter Christ. I believe that serving others and being love in action is what Christ calls us to do. I am a proud Methodist, proud of how we have a history of upholding and fighting for social justice and putting our faith into action in our communities.

 

I love spending time with family and friends, watching live music, walking, and enjoy photography. I am a season ticket holder at West Bromwich Albion FC, having known the elation and misery of watching the Baggies for many years!
