Ruth has lived and worked in Bedford since 1992, aside from a year in London and almost two in Scotland!
For over 20 years, Ruth was involved in education and children’s work, in a variety of roles and settings, including teacher, project manager, advisor, foster carer and youth and children’s worker at her local church.
In 2014 she graduated from Spurgeon’s College with a Master’s in Christian Faith and Practice. Since then she has been keenly involved in promoting the work of John Bunyan, and particularly The Pilgrim’s Progress, through her studies, church involvement and writing.
Ruth took on the management of Dorothea Court in 2018, and after an interesting journey with Pilgrims' Friend Society (and God!) - taking her to Scotland, Leicester, Worthing and Suffolk - she is now very happy to be back as manager at Dorothea Court!
In her spare time, Ruth loves spending time with family and friends, and has just completed her first year of a Professional Doctorate in Practical Theology.
