Meet the Board
Alan Burrows
Board Member
I have lived in Furzedown since moving here from Battersea with my wife Lisa and our 3 children in 2003.
I come from a large family of 5 brothers and 5 sisters (11 including me). I am an uncle to 34 nephews and nieces, and a great-uncle to 14 more.
I have been passionate about Children and youth work since secondary school when I approached a Wandsworth based youth club about being a volunteer. Though only 14 at the time, I somehow knew this is what I was called to do.
I am currently studying Theology and Youth Ministry at St Mellitus college as part of my training to become a Licensed Lay Minister with Children, Youth and Families in the Anglican Diocese of Southwark. As part of my training I started a placement within the 4 Furzedown Churches and Furzedown Youth Centre projects. This I do alongside my role as a Church Manager for St James Church, and as a board member for FYC.
Away from work and FYC I enjoy reading the Bible, playing snooker, music, movies and am a HUGE fan of comedy.
