Laurence Biggs
Mission Director

Laurence Biggs, an ordained Anglican minister, has been in world missions for nearly 30 years. He was the founder of Romania Care which has raised over £ 1 million (cash and gifts in kind) to provide practical help and financial support for charitable, educational, and medical projects in Romania/Moldova and sent over 200 people there on short-term mission teams. In recent years he has been involved with mission work in Sierra Leone, Kenya, and Zambia. Having taken early retirement, he is excited about the possibility of dedicating more time to the world mission through his work as Mission Director of Throw A Starfish.
