Trustees
Here at SW London Vineyard we are extremely blessed to have such an outstanding Board of Trustees helping us lead & grow the church. The contribution of the Trustees, especially over the past couple of years, has been invaluable and we are so grateful to the Lord for their wise counsel & support. The Trustees meet regularly to discuss a wide range of subjects relating to the church and we would be grateful if you would join with us as we pray for them. If you would like to find out more about the governance of SWLV, or would like to find out more about how to become a Trustee, please contact Neil & Kate: neilandkate@swlv.org.uk

Stephanie Bell
Trustee
Stephanie has been a member of SWLV for over 20 years. She is married to Howard, lives in New Malden and has two spirited grown-up daughters. As well as being a Trustee she has worked her way through various forms of ministries - Foodbank, the Job Club, KIds, coffee and "Find Your Ideal Job" courses. Now largely retired, she was a Deputy Director of Social Services, a Chief Executive in the NHS, and a public sector consultant.
She was born and brought up in India and has travelled widely with her family - climate change has put paid to that so she's now looking for alternative suggestions.

My wife, Camilla, and I live in Clapham and have been attending SWLV since around 1996 first as a couple and now with our three children. Over the years, we have been involved in most aspects of the life of the Church, although I am still waiting for an invitation to join the Worship band. In my daily life, I am a lawyer as well as also being involved in a number of other Charities as a Trustee, including Vineyard Churches UK and Ireland and the Ivy Street Family Centre in Hoxton. Although you should really test this with others, I think of myself as vaguely approachable and would be really happy to discuss any aspect of SWLV’s life and gain insight from others on ideas and thoughts.

Trustee
I live in Battersea with my husband Harry and our rescue dog Basil. We have been part of SWLV since 2015 and I have served on Tea and Coffee and Vineyard Kids. I have also been a volunteer youth worker outside of the church and continue to work as the speaker at a youth camp each summer. I enjoy discussing difficult questions about faith and life! My background is in education but I moved into communications, branding and marketing for digital platforms and I now currently run my own health and beauty tech company. This also means that I’m involved with the church’s own communications and digital presence - including really fun things like our GDPR policy!

I live in New Malden with my wife Ruth and children, Rohan and India and chocolate Labrador Charlie who has helped us explore every corner of Richmond Park. We’ve been part of SWLV since 2014 and have enjoyed serving in different teams including VKids, Youth, Worship, Coffee, Small Groups and at The Yard. I currently manage a consulting business helping manufacturing companies and have worked in a variety of business, charity and church roles – often with a keen eye on the numbers! In my spare time I am a qualified coach with our local cricket club, Kingstonian CC.
