Matt Lillicrap

Chief Executive Officer.

Matt studied Medicine in Newcastle and qualified in 2006. Until 2013 he worked as a junior doctor around the North-East for seven years, alongside a stint as a staff worker for CMF. From 2013-2017 he spent four years studying theology for pastoral ministry at Oak Hill College in London, before heading up the M11 to Cambridge. He was Associate Pastor at Eden Baptist Church for four years heading up student ministry, and then pastor of Hope Community Church Cambridge for three years.
Matt is married to Anika who is a pastoral counsellor. When not working Matt can often be found running, reading, watching movies, and spending as much time as possible doing fun things with his wife, six children and their (completely mad) Labrador.
