Trustees and Treasurers
Richard Haydon-Knowell who is now retired but was a church pastor for many years, Chris Norwood who is a deputy-head in a secondary school and Julian Perry (see above). These people look after the trust and are ultimately responsible for the finances but are also involved in other leadership functions.
Steve Gallagher is the church treasurer and heads up the finance team which manages the month to month accounts of the church. But for most of his time he is busy running his own business!
There are many others who are responsible for leadership of different areas or projects such as small groups and youth and children’s work. We also recognise the vital contribution that every member makes into the life of the church in a multitude of ways. |
