Set in the valley of the river Tyne, Chesters is the best-preserved Roman cavalry fort in Britain. Around 500 cavalry troops - the elite of the Roman auxiliary forces - were based here. Between the fort and the river, you'll find the finest example of a military bath house anywhere in Britain.

Meet the incredible people behind the work we do at C40 Cities
What motivated you to work in the climate space, and how did you become involved with C40?
My journey into the climate space began with a background in civil engineering, a field where climate considerations are peripheral but have a profound impact. Having experienced droughts and water shortages and working in areas devastated by cyclone Idai in 2019 sharpened my focus on environmental equality and climate resilience. Since then, I have channelled expertise towards water and sanitation, particularly in African communities that are more vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. My transition to C40 in 2023 was driven by a desire to make a tangible difference, particularly in supporting African cities in water management and climate adaptation strategies.
What’s an accomplishment that you are proud of in your work with C40?
Since joining C40, my focus has been on elevating the importance of water management within the urban planning and resilience frameworks of African cities. The challenge of integrating climate-resilient water policies at a city level amidst broader continental and national dialogues has been a complex yet rewarding endeavour. I am particularly proud of the strides we’ve made in positioning water resilience as a critical agenda for city mayors, as evidenced by several African mayors endorsing C40’s recently launched Water Safe Cities Accelerator.
What upcoming initiatives is C40 working on that you are excited about?
I am looking forward to the forthcoming African Water Safe Cities Forum in Tshwane. This platform is particularly exciting as it represents a confluence of innovation, collaboration, and leadership in the water management sector. By introducing new water urban water management approaches and technologies to African city water leaders, the forum aims to spearhead transformative solutions and foster a community of practice that is sustainable and forward-thinking.
How do you balance your personal and professional life?
Living in Tshwane offers a unique blend of nature, adventure and cultures to explore. While there’s a lot more to discover, I am privileged to live near diverse spaces where I enjoy walks and hikes with my family. This not only provides a physical outlet, but also allows me to reconnect with my surroundings and recharge.
Once a year, the golf bug bites, seeking a few weeks of exploring courses in new corners of South Africa. The outdoors counterbalances professional demands, keeping me refreshed and inspired.
World Water Day is on 22 March; this year’s theme is “water for peace.” How do you believe water plays a role in fostering peace and resilience?
Water scarcity, exacerbated by climate change and rapid urbanisation, is a pressing challenge across Africa, often leading to heightened community tensions and protests over the resource’s allocation. Recently, we’ve also seen the increasing role of hydro-politics in fueling mass migration and international conflicts. Addressing water security through cooperative management can serve as a powerful vehicle for peace and resilience.
Initiatives aimed at improving water infrastructure mitigate conflict potential and enhance community well-being. By embracing inclusive and sustainable water management strategies, water is being transformed from a source of potential conflict into a foundation for cooperation and peace.

- Able to lead, equip and empower a small staff team
- Committed to discipling and training of church members

The parish of Biggin Hill (pop. 12,018) is a small town - still referred to by many residents as a 'village' - on the edge of the London Borough of Bromley. It is mainly residential and surrounded by beautiful, open countryside, yet sits within just a few miles of the M25.
The Living is currently suspended to allow for the possibility of future pastoral reorganisation, but the hope is that our new priest will guide the parish towards achieving its full potential and the suspension being lifted.
The ideal candidate will be:
- A prayerful and practical leader, keen to develop the prayer life of the congregation;
- Able to work collaboratively with our enthusiastic ministry team, and have experience enabling others in their discipleship;
- Comfortable leading a wide range of worship styles;
- Creative in extending the use of our church space and facilities;
- Willing to work with a team to establish a Youth Group.
St Mark's Church was dedicated in 1959 and is Grade II Listed. A complete refurbishment of the lighting has recently been completed, enabling a range of lighting arrangements for traditional worship, concerts and other community events. The modern audio-visual system enables Parish Communion services to be live-streamed and recorded, which is very popular.
The Church Hall complex is very well used by a number of local organisations, with a large hall, separate lounge, well-equipped kitchen, meeting room and office.
The adjacent Vicarage is a 4-bedroom family home with a separate study, double garage and good-sized garden providing private and well-screened accommodation.
Sunday Worship takes place at 10.30am, with an All-Age Family Service on the first Sunday and Parish Communion services on other Sundays (USA 50-55). Worship is supported by a choir and band or keyboard player with a mix of hymns and songs. A said Midweek Communion takes place on a Wednesday morning (USA 12). There are also a number of special services held throughout the year. Full details can be seen in the accompanying Parish Profile.
Biggin Hill is renowned for its contribution to WWII when the RAF base within the parish played a key role in defence of Britain. Our priest also acts as Chaplain to St George's RAF Memorial Chapel, taking one service per month in the Chapel as well as supporting and working alongside their ministry team.
You will be supported by an enthusiastic and experienced PCC, a part-time paid Administrator, an LLM-in-training, a Pastoral Visiting Team, and a large number of volunteers who all play a part in regularly organising and planning church activities and outreach (including five who have completed the Hearing and Speaking God's Word course and able to lead worship and/or preach).
