A Yorkshire lass, I moved to Marlow in July 2011 to follow my husband, Gareth, who is in the RAF. We have been married for 12 years and have two amazing children, Annabelle is in year 6 and John is in year 3, both at Holy Trinity School. My church life has mainly focused around the children’s groups for 9.15 services, involvement with Alpha and last year I joined the ASM Church Council as one of the Service Wardens. My professional career has afforded me some wonderful opportunities to work and learn in a wide variety of functions within a global organisation. I pray I can serve well as one of the Church Wardens. Please contact me if you have any feedback, questions or concerns you wish to share.

He can often be found consoling small children with bumps or grazes, or overseeing activities from his favourite armchair in the crèche.
