E-mail: leadBritain@gbhemhubs.org
Lead Hub Britain is embedded in the Cambridge Theological Federation and works closely with the University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin University. We partner with Africa University and Kenya Methodist University in building theological capacity through offering PhD programs for Methodist theological educators and with seminaries around the world to offer study abroad programs in Cambridge for ecumenical and pan-Methodist formation. Our research in global Wesleyan theology, leadership and ministry development and faith in public life feeds our professional development courses and free public access programs. We welcome visiting scholars and sabbatical visitors to visit us in person at Cambridge and scholars, students and practitioners to join us online for study and worship.
Hello and welcome to the Lead Hub Britain!
