INTRODUCING LYN

Lyn joined Christians Against Poverty as the UK Director of Church Engagement and Network in September 2022, responsible for the Church Network, leading all CAP’s frontline work across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. She also leads the Church Partnership teams, growing new relationships with the UK Church, as well as developing products and services to equip and inspire thriving churches in our mission to see lives transformed, and see an end to UK poverty. Lyn is an enthusiastic evangelist and delights in her responsibility for the Mission, Evangelism and Discipleship team. Her passion is to inspire a movement of change makers, determined to eradicate poverty across the UK, whilst sharing the Good News of Christ.

Lyn previously worked for the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity as Director of Church Relations, equipping and inspiring Anglican dioceses and churches to develop whole-life disciple-making cultures. She is a gifted speaker with a wealth of experience, speaking at large conferences and churches across the UK. Lyn is an ordained Church of England Priest who absolutely loves the UK Church, and has previously served as the Director of Mission in the Diocese of Chester. Before that, Lyn spent 22 years directing strategic transformation in global banking across a wide range of transformation programmes. Her biggest prayer is to see an end to UK poverty; God really showed her the startling reality of its devastation whilst she was leading debt management in banking.

Lyn is a Board Member of Langley House Trust and chairs the Mission Committee. She is also a Board Advisor to Christian Aid. Lyn loves most to spend time with her husband Phil and 15 year-old son Luke, and they all thrive on outdoor adventure sports. Lyn is particularly fond of spin and long-distance running.
