Richard is also the Church Secretary.

Martin Bedford

His focus within the Church leans towards youth work, involved in a broad range of activities from weekly children's groups to annual holiday clubs.

Deacons

The Deacons support the Eldership in all administrative and material matters of the Church, according to the Biblical principles defined in 1 Timothy allowing the elders to concentrate on their duties of their own office.‍‍
