Our UK Board
UK Trustees
Rachel Todd
Rachel is married to Graham, they live in Portrush and worship and serve in Ballysally Presbyterian Church in Coleraine. Stauros has always been close to Rachels heart as it is ‘the family business’ in more ways than one. …Rachel grew up knowing her Uncle Arthur’s testimony and the transformational impact it had on her dad and the next generations of the Williams family of which she is proud to be one! Ten years ago, Rachel started a journey to become a qualified counsellor (which she achieved in June 2015). and throughout that journey, she had support from Janet McCullough and Pamela Brown, who helped navigate her own insecurities and struggles as well as encourage her to see the purpose that the Lord had for her in this area. In addition, in Rachel’s current role in work as an HR Manager, her passion has always been for people and how to love and be compassionate to all in society, regardless of the home they are brought up in or the circumstances they find themselves in. Therefore, when asked to join the trustees in December 2019, she was delighted to be able to use her skills and heart for Stauros in a more practical way and prays that she can continue to do so for many years to come. For Rachel, the verse from Joshua 24:19 is her mission statement for this journey, ‘As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.’
