Joan enjoys working as a Learning Facilitator at the York Museums Trust delivering workshops for primary age children. She also fills the role of Social Secretary for the Claremont Terrace Residents Association. At church she continues to help with Twinklers, the name for the creche, she also makes some pastoral visits.

Barrie is busy as a churchwarden at St Michael le Belfrey and safeguarding representative for the PCC. He preaches from time to time too. He’s the chair of Restore (York) Ltd, the housing charity he started in 2010 for people who are homeless in York. This year he also helped to set up a new service where street sleepers can find shelter during the winter. And if that’s not enough he’s also chair of the Residents Association.

We both love making regular trips to Chelmsford and Cambridge to see our children and grandchildren, but this Christmas they will all be visiting us.
