Stuart Kennett
Kick London (Croydon)
Stuart was born in 1985 and has lived in Beckenham all his life. He’s had a passion for sport since he was young, particularly football. Working for Kick London was a great opportunity to combine that with his passion for youth work and Jesus.
He studied animation at university for 4 years and had an awesome time. Stuart is a huge art and film fan and is a bit of geek really! He loves going to the cinema and drawing in his free time, as well as socializing with friends.
Stuart has been working with Kick London as a volunteer since it started in Croydon in 2006 and began as a full time staff coach in January 2009. He feels very blessed to be part of the Kick team, as each day brings new and exciting challenges.
He is heavily involved in the youth work of his church: West Wickham and Shirley Baptist Church and is passionate about being an officer in the 14th Croydon Boys Brigade which meets on a Friday night at the church. He helps in both the Junior & Senior sections of the Company. Stuart also helps to lead the Sunday School: “Trailblazers” and helps at YPF (a 14-18’s youth group) and also ‘Fish Food’, a youth Bible study group.
Stuart is very friendly, so if you see him, say hello!
