Our Elders

Elders are members of the congregation who have been chosen by their fellow members to share with the minister in the pastoral oversight and leadership of the church, meeting together in the monthly elders’ meeting and each having a small group of members entrusted to their pastoral care.

Diana Collett – Church Secretary

I have a long-standing association with this church, I was baptised here in 1941 and the Sunday school, Youth Club and other church activities were a large part of my growing up.  My husband, Robert and I were married here in 1973 and subsequently brought our sons for baptism. The link was continued when our granddaughter  from Australia was brought for Infant Blessing in 2019.
I was first received into membership in 1962 and transferred back into membership in 2009.
Since 2014 I have edited and produced the monthly church newsletter. I was ordained as Elder in 2015 and took on the role of church secretary in 2016 with responsibility for church finance from 2018.
After a career as a lecturer in pharmacy at De Montfort University I spent some time as a prescribing adviser in Primary Care before retirement and now find myself fully occupied with church activities
