David came to West Malling in September 2011 and became Team Vicar of the newly created Kent Downs & Malling Team Ministry in August 2022. He will be leaving the Team at the end of the month to take up the post of Vicar of St Luke’s Church, Tunbridge Wells.

David’s farewell service will be held at St Mary’s, West Malling on Sunday 28 July at 4pm. This will be a short service, followed by refreshments. Non benefice and non church orgagisations, that David has had dealings with during his thirteen years ministry in this area have also been invited, and there will be plenty of time after the service for you to say your own personal goodbye to David, Kerry, Bethya, Nathanael and Josiah.
