Reverend Jeremy Allcock
I have the pleasure and privilege of serving as Rector of St. Martin in the Bull Ring, and I enjoy being part of this vibrant and exciting church situated right in the retail heart of Birmingham. As part of my ministry, I presently act as Chair to the BeFriend Retail Chaplaincy Management Committee, and together we are delighted to support Elaine plus the whole team of amazing volunteers in their chaplaincy across the city centre. I was born in Birmingham, and it is great to be back living and serving in my home city. I am married to Clare, and we have three adult children. I enjoy doing lots of different things, but I am particularly proud of my latest venture – growing my own potatoes!
