Julie Halsey / Trustee

Julie was appointed a Trustee with responsibility for the building in October 2024, having held various leadership roles in the church since becoming a member in 1982.

“A church building is such an important asset and having that building enables SSCC to use and share it with different groups to benefit the local community.  Alongside the existing team, bringing the building up to a good standard and maintaining it will be an ongoing challenge.”

In 2023 Julie retired as company secretary and administrator of a local community hall, providing her with 10 years’ experience of all sorts of things relating to a community-building. 

Outside of church she co-ordinates her road’s Neighbourhood Watch Group.  For relaxation, fresh air and exercise she tends an allotment growing a variety of organic fruit and veg.  She is married to Noel, has two children and has “very delightful grandchildren all growing up far too quickly”.
