Stacey has lived in East Ham her whole life and has a real heart for the local community, promoting inclusion, empowerment and celebration within her role as a Children and Families Project Co-Ordinator for Bonny Downs Community Association. Stacey seeks to blur the boundaries of community and church to bring a holistic and vibrant approach to inspiring children to grow in their faith and achieve their dreams, and for parents and carers to feel supported as they experience the joys and challenges of raising their families.
Stacey has been inducted in the Urban School of Leadership Changemakers programme and is now heading up the Young Changemakers cohort in East London’s E6, which sees young people supported to grow in leadership and use their skills and passions to serve their community. Her participation in Changemakers sparked a joy of learning and to lean deeper into God’s call on her life, and in 2020 enrolled in Nazarene Theological College to study a MA in Theology – Humanitarian and Social Justice.
