I’m married to Mike and have been at Lee Abbey London for two years. I help with pastoral care and the administration of Lee Abbey.
Hilary Holness
I have a background in NHS Management and the Hospitality Industry. I joined the team in 2016 and love working here. I’ve spent the last 3 winters travelling abroad so I am missing the sun a little bit.

I like to ensure that our facilities are well looked after and am constantly looking for ways to improve the living spaces. I love anything to do with the outdoors, I especially enjoy a good bonfire.
