It is my real joy to be part of the Governing body of RMS. Before moving into Richmond in July 2019, I "sat down" (a strange Methodist expression for retiring!) from the "active" Methodist Ministry, - most recently in Bedale. Prior to my calling to the Methodist Ministry I had taught in schools for children with Severe, and Profound and Multiple Learning disabilities in North Yorkshire, Manchester, and Birmingham. My passion is John Wesley's favourite word "all" -a world where all are valued, cherished, and enabled to be the very best self they can be.
