Roydon is a church Trustee and is married to Jan who leads the ‘Sozo’ ministry at King's Arms. They have both been part of the church since the early 1990's. They have been married for over 50 years and have two children and five grandchildren now in their teens and twenties.
Roydon studied mathematics at university and worked in the aerospace industry for over 30 years before taking early retirement in 2006 enabling him to take on various leadership roles in the church. In the early days of the church, their home and garden hosted mid-week meetings and social events, while Roydon led the search for a building, secured King’s House in 2009, and oversaw its development in the following years.
Roydon and Jan now lead the Sunday Life Group at Blunham, in a building over 250 years old (and the maintenance is a never-ending activity!) He is also one of our deacons serving on the Governance Oversight team.
Roydon is a passionate football fan of Norwich City and for many years showed his support by driving an ancient yellow sports car, which has recently morphed into a much newer orange beauty! He is also known for his love of wine and well-constructed spreadsheets.
