Nick Harding

Nick Harding is the Children's Ministry Adviser for the Anglican Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham. He is a lay member of the General Synod, was the inaugural Chair of the Trustees of Godly Play UK, has been a Trustee of Scripture Union for 9 years, and is a well-known conference speaker and trainer. When not at work Nick is a dad to two excellent teenage boys, husband to a patient wife, leads worship and ministry at his local church, and is a magistrate.

Nick is the author of several books on children's work and all-age worship, including Better than Halloween . He has also written for teenagers and on the subject of the church and boys.

Better than Halloween suggests approaches and ideas that are both biblical and child-centred. I hope that many more churches will take confidence from these, and begin a new wave of re-christening the occasion to become a positive opportunity for Christian outreach.' - Rt Revd David Gillett, Bishop of Bolton
