Being down in Beggarswood meeting all aspects of people that have been part of our life in some way through the years made me think about what it means to be a local church. We're of course firmly rooted at the middle of the communities that we serve - All Saints in Lobley Hill and St Cuthbert's Marley Hill. That is an amazing privilege. I have just spent a complete day interviewing for new members of team for our Primary School in Lobley Hill (now that Maggie Howard has retired I have helped with the appointment of every other teacher including the Headmaster)
