My name is Nick Braithwaite and I am the Associate Minister at KBC and Trustee with responsibility for Safeguarding. I have lived in Basildon all my life and started coming to KBC in 2004. It is my home church, I came to faith, was baptised and was called to ministry at KBC in February 2016, for which I will begin my studies later on in the year. I am married to Lisa and have two beautiful children, Joshua and Elizabeth.

I am greatly blessed by God’s faithfulness and feel honoured to share the good news of Jesus Christ and serve God’s people. I love football and follow West Ham as I have done since I was a kid. I love to socialise with friends and family, feel the sun on my face, eat out and worship the Lord together with my brothers and sisters in Christ.
