Favourite bible character?

Peter (as in the disciple) cos he’s a bit of an idiot but God still completely transforms his life and makes him into an incredible man of God.

Best film ever?

Princess diaries...

Interesting fact about yourself

When I was little a llama tried to eat my hair because it thought it was hay.

Perfect holiday?

Somewhere which involves a beach, is far away and means I have to take a backpack and a lonely planet guide.

What’s so amazing about Wigan?

They eat pies, it’s in the north, home to Heinz baked beans, George Orwell wrote a book about it, Ian McKellen came from wigan and so did lots of musical talent including George Formby, the Verve and Kim Marsh! Also it has a pier but isn’t by the sea.

Best advice to give to a fresher

Get stuck into a church where you can be supported, grow and serve. It’s great to see people outside of the student bubble and also great for free food that’s nicer than halls!
