Lorraine has a Masters in Theology & Leadership and is passionate about all things related to pioneering leadership and living out Jesus’ call to radical discipleship among those on the margins.

She teaches Spirituality and Discipleship as an associate tutor with Winchester Diocese’s school of mission, and she has been a guest speaker and groups facilitator for the Global Leadership Summit in the UK.

Prior to being a full-time ordained minister within a large parish in Bournemouth, Lorraine was the CEO of the international charity Toilet Twinning, and a director with the charity Open Doors – and she has travelled extensively across Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East to spend time with church partners and persecuted Christians.

Lorraine is married with three grown-up children, two cats and a dog. She and her husband Vern love to go for long bike rides around the New Forest and Purbecks, and also like going out for curries. Vern will be joining her in Reberty for her second week.
