Lin Berwick Launch

On Thursday 23 February 2012, Dr Lin Berwick MBE had a very successful launch for her new book God’s Rich Pattern; Meditations for when our faith is shaken, released last month.


Held in Shelley’s Restaurant in Suffolk New College, where Lin is a fellow,  guests were treated to a spectacular spread of food and refreshments. There were speeches from Professor Dave Muller, Principal of Suffolk New College; Bob Christin, Vice President of the Lin Berwick Trust; Diana Tyler, Literary Agent at MBA Literary Agents and Alison Barr, Senior Editor at SPCK. To close the event, Lin gave a heartfelt speech about the new book and what it means to her.


Our sincerest thanks go to the catering and hospitality students at Suffolk New College, who ensured that the food and service was second to none.
