Everyone is valued at Northcliffe and the whole fellowship contributes and gets involved in some way, at some time, according to their skills, strengths and talents.
To keep things running smoothly some people have specific responsibilities. Our aim is to support each other and work as a team.
Senior Elder & Lay Pastor
Tim Billingsley
As senior elder, Tim takes the lead in many things at Northcliffe and has his particular responsibilities within Northcliffe and with the Methodist and UR Churches locally and regionally.
He also supports the members and congregation in his role as lay pastor and worship leader.
He is supported by other office holders and a small leadership team.

The Leadership Team
This small group not only supports the senior elder but also represents the broader fellowship.
They help to draw up plans and discuss recommendations to take to the General Church Meeting for approval or implementation.
They each bring personal gifts to the team and are at the core of our service as a fellowship.
