Llinos Mary Jehu
BA(Hons), MPhil, PhD
At the time of joining, Llinos is in her 60s and has had 2 organ lessons; thereby proving that it's never too late to learn the organ or too early to identify as a woman organist.
After a career in the public sector and much experience of being asked/persuaded/badgered into playing for church services, Llinos has decided that retirement presents a wonderful opportunity to finally learn to play properly. And so the adventure begins!
