The Prayer Spaces in Schools team currently includes;
Tim Abbott leads CYO, a youth and schools ministry in Colchester, Essex and has been involved in schools work for quite a while. He is married, has two sons, and plays bass. Tim has organised three town-wide 24-7 prayer rooms, one in a vacant shop at Christmas. He likes starting new things and in 2007 dreamed up an idea that launched in July 2008 as Sanctum, a Prayer Space for schools in the Colchester area.
Rach Warwick is an escaped primary school teacher who now runs breathe (interactive spiritual development for 16-19 year olds) and Orison (creative prayer spaces in schools.) She lives in north London with her husband, Dan, and if she's not doing prayer spaces in schools, she's probably playing the bassoon with the All Souls Orchestra..
Catherine Clayton lives and works in Oxford. She has spent six years working as a primary school teacher. During this time she was the RE Coordinator and the curriculum leader for the school. She enjoys skiing and playing tennis. Since September 2010 Catherine has been developing prayer spaces in primary and secondary schools around Oxfordshire

Phil Togwell lives in a large community house in Romford (UK) with his family (three daughters - Megan, Poppy and Angel, and one wife - Emma) and various visitors and pilgrims... exploring and experimenting with rhythms of prayer, mission, hospitality, life together. Phil is learning to cook, slowly. He likes curries, mountains, lengthy late-night conversations and reading books. He dislikes cats. Phil leads 24-7's Prayer Spaces in Schools team.
Mandy Moo is the administrator to Prayer Spaces in Schools. Mandy is a drama graduate and likes; people, eating and cats (a little too much). During 2008-2009 she completed an internship with 24-7 Prayer (on their Wild Goose program) and her life was never the same again. Mandy was born and bred in the WONDERFUL North East though relocated in June 2010 to Stanford-le-Hope in Essex to join with the Boiler Room community there. And yes, Moo is her real surname.
Emily Bosworth works for Leeds Faith in Schools and lives and loves Holbeck, Leeds. She enjoys thinking creative and spending time either musing with friends or dancing into the wee small hours. Leave a pack of biscuits out and she'll eat them all.
Jeff Pullinger is our web-designer and all-round nice, wise person.
I’m very impressed by this initiative in schools and places of learning. What impresses me most is that it is multi-faith based. I dread to see UK Schools becoming like those in the US, where there is a constant battle to force-feed prayer & the Christian faith to all, irrespective of this violating the legal separation of Church and state. With luck this will also appeal to those who are spiritual but not religious, ie humanists and the like thereof.
