Executive Committee
Martin took early retirement from the rail industry in 2024, partly so that he could devote more time to his voluntary work in the Christian peace movement. He has been on Christian CND Exec since 2015, and currently also serves as the UK Board Member of Church and Peace. He is studying part time for an MA at the Centre for the Study of Bible and Violence, and is a member of Rugby Baptist Church. He enjoys working with lots of amazing people in all of these organisations. His greatest frustration is when nuclear disarmament is seen as a controversial or ‘niche’ issue, especially among Christians – it should be really obvious that we all need to work together for God’s peace on earth!
Kelvin has been involved with Christian CND for many years and has served on the Executive Committee for some time. Kelvin is always willing to help out and is a regular on our stalls at festivals and events.
Richard joined Christian CND in 2020. Through the online prayer meetings, he met like-minded people, prayed with them, and grew in his conviction that nuclear disarmament is an essential thing for Christians to campaign for. He has enjoyed being on the CCND stand at Greenbelt and speaking to Year 11 Religious Studies pupils at a local school about nuclear weapons, disarmament and Christian CND. Richard is a Church of England parish priest – Rector of Bishopstoke in Hampshire, where he has been for 19 years. He is married to Anne, and they have four sons.
