David Scourfield, who has been Lead Chaplain for almost two years, has recently announced his resignation. He has been training as an ordinand with the Church of England and in July this year will be ordained in St Albans Cathedral and take up a post as curate at All Saints Church in Leavesden.

This is really good news for David but not for the Chaplaincy. David has been an effective and hardworking Lead Chaplain during his time in the Chaplaincy, leading the teams of Chaplains and Street Angels and making contact with a variety of stakeholders within the town centre.

There will be time for thanks and good-byes when David leaves at the end of March.
