Children, Youth & Family Team
These are the people who run the programmes for the children and young people within our parish. All of our programmes have a firm biblical foundation and all of our team members have undertaken some type of theological study.
Youth & Young Adults Pastor
Children’s Pastor
Charlotte is the Children's Pastor at St Tim's. Her role includes running the Lighthouse Kids program, as well as overseeing all the children's programmes at St Tim's, known as Kids 4 Christ. Charlotte also runs our Kendal Afterschool Club on a Monday (during school terms). This club is aimed at reaching out to the wider community around our area and inviting children to a safe and fun space after school.
Charlotte has attended St Tim's since she was a child and also volunteers as a youth leader at Neos. Outside of work, she is studying towards a Fine Arts degree and really enjoys Irish dancing.

Philippa Rodley, a mother and grandmother with a 26 year involvement in this parish, runs our Tea and Tots programme with a team of volunteers who help with home baking, child minding and kitchen duties. Tea and Tots has been running since April 2002 and is held on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month in the St. Timothy’s church hall. Philippa works as a nurse at the Christchurch Public Hospital.
