I was appointed Organist and Choirmaster at Willowfield in 1961. Our current Rector, Canon David McClay, is the sixth with whom I've worked over the years. For me, the outstanding constants over that time have been -1)Willowfield's commitment to ‘Outreach', at home and abroad and 2)Willowfield's capacity to adapt and change in coping with the changing circumstances and environment in which it seeks to extend Christ's kingdom on earth. I too have had to adapt to these changes which have enriched the privilege of working in Willowfield.

A map of the personal changes that have occurred might look like – single young man - married to Etta - dad to Carole and Paul - granddad to Alex, Dominic and Laura.
