We are very sad to let you know that Rev’d Jill Hazelwood has died.  She died peacefully at home on Tuesday morning, having been ill for a number of years.  Jill was an immensely caring person with a humble and gentle nature. Her first career was as a primary school teacher – and she taught generations of children at St Helen’s School through which she is very fondly remembered.  Her deep spirituality and quiet determination led her to be one of the first women ordained as a priest in the Church of England. She combined her ministry with her teaching role beautifully showing amazing pastoral care to young and old alike.  She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.  Please pray for Colin, and Jill’s wider family in their grief.

Once her funeral and memorial services are arranged, we will let you have the details.
