I was born in the small village of Swannington and have lived on Mile Cross for 40 years with my husband Kevin, we have been married for 47 years this June. We have a son Matthew and daughter Rachael, a dear little grandson and 3 lovely step-grandchildren. I started going to St Catherine's about 38 years ago when my children joined the Sunday School and for several years I enjoyed being one of a team that shared the Lord's word with the younger members of the congregation and for many years I organised a team of people to go out monthly as part of the Salvation Army soup run until it was abruptly stopped because of the covid 19 pandemic. I love being part of the congregation at St Catherine's and have made many friends and can never imagine a day when it’s not part of my life.
