BibleLands is delighted
to announce the recent appointment of new Trustee, Hugh
Bradley, a Methodist from Guildford. Hugh, a retired
Communications Director from Debenhams PLC, is the third
member of Merrow Methodist Church to become a BibleLands
Trustee, following in the footsteps of Ken Mills and the late
John Wells, whose combined service to the Charity spanned 19
years.
“I have supported the excellent work of BibleLands for
a number of years and am delighted to have this opportunity to
become more involved,” Hugh explained. “The work of BibleLands
Project Partners in the Middle East plays a crucial witness to
the continuing love of Christ in this troubled region. I hope
that I will be able to help the Charity in whatever way I can
in this privileged role.”
Hugh had the opportunity to take an active role in BibleLands’
work last October, when he joined a group of volunteers to
help build houses for low income families in rural Upper
Egypt, alongside six other members of Merrow Methodist Church.
Married with two grown-up daughters, Hugh already leads an
active life and is a Governor at his local Comprehensive
School.
