Nigel
Lane
He was born in
an embarrassingly named Lancashire town in 1955, where he
lived until he was 10 years old, and then again from 13 years
old almost until he was married in 1977. During that time
his father died [when Nigel was 8] and he became
a Christian [when he was 14]. Jan and Nigel have 3 children
- Rebecca, Adam and Beth and 3 grand children - Megan, Carys
and Lewis.
He was variously
[and continuously] employed in various industries until
he 'settled down' into sales and marketing for the transport
and distribution industry. With three young children and a
growing career the family had one of their famous 'family
conferences' where it was decided that the job needed to be
reduced to enable Dad to become part of the family again.
This happened as
they moved from the south of England to the North East - incidentally
before they arrived Nigel had found a job - sales in the transport
industry! Although the move meant a dramatic drop in salary
the family were very happy. During this period [with all the
spare time Nigel had gained] he began to volunteer at the
church young group [populated by his children as well as others].
That move began a life change which you see today -
full time youth worker [since 1991].
Late in 1999 Nigel
and his wife Jan moved to Australia to continue his youthwork
as Executive Director of YFC
Geelong-Westcoast.
Coaching and mentoring

training being received from Coach
University. Nigel is also a member of Christian
Coaches.
