Dave is married to Mel, and together they have three daughters, Eleanor, Felicity, and Amelie. He is also the minister of Veritas Church.
Dave has been in pastoral ministry since 2009, after having studied in Sydney, Australia for three years. He was ordained as a minister in 2015.
Through a long and winding theological journey, Dave came to Reformed and Presbyterian theological convictions and, seeing there was no Presbyterian church in Preston, decided, along with a small group of people to plant Veritas Church, which launched in June 2024.
