Lauren grew up in a Christian home and is thankful for her parents who taught her about Jesus and modelled with their lives what trust in him looked like. She came to trust Jesus for herself in her late teens and then really grew in her own understanding at university.

Before joining the staff team at CCM, Lauren worked in student ministry for 6 years in Durham and Cambridge followed by 3 years of women's ministry at a church in Tunbridge Wells. What she enjoys most is spending time reading the Bible with people one to one and growing in understanding together of what God has made known. She loves time in an art gallery and spending time with family and friends.
