I am Assistant Curate at St John's Hyde Park, in the Paddington area, London. I'm married with two children and a cat.

Social Digital Chapter

Thursday 19th March, at 7 pm, London time

As it is Lent, and many people have additional commitments during this time, we don’t have a formal theme or a named presenter. This is a social evening to chat and get to know each other a little more. So, if you have something to share, silly or solemn, Six Nations or United Nations, please do bring it along.

I will have beer and snacks on hand, but feel free bring your own – actually, that is probably the better option . .
