Hello, I am Laura, originally from Belfast and moved to Canterbury from London in 2019. We found SMB fairly quickly after moving and particularly love the children’s and youth work within the church, and the whole ‘church family’ vibe with such a beautifully diverse range of fellow church members! I’m married to Raymond and together we are parenting 4 lovely kids aged 4-14, so life is never dull! I’m a social worker and have worked in different areas, most recently in Adoption. However, currently I am running a coffee and book shop, which only opened this year (2024) and that is keeping me very busy at the mo!
