Andy originally comes from Suffolk where he grew up with his parents and older brother. Unfortunately he had to leave this sunny area of the UK behind when he moved north to study Chemistry in Sheffield. It was at university here that Andy became a Christian. Four years later he continued his journey further up the UK to Newcastle where he was a Relay worker. After Relay he worked in a secondary school for a couple of years teaching Chemistry to the young people in the Gateshead area. He has now moved so far north that he is no longer in his country of birth!  Andy loves spending time out in the hills, walking or running. He also enjoys most sports but basketball is the one that has a particularly special place in his heart. Andy has a keen interest in considering how we think christianly and biblically about all areas of our lives, and how we can bring all areas of our lives under the Lordship of Christ.
