About Rev Glen Wesley

Rev Glen is the Vicar of St Aidan’s Anglican Church, Strathmore. St Aidan’s seeks to be a calm, welcoming place where people can arrive as they are and participate at their own pace.

A central focus of Glen’s ministry is neurodiversity and accessibility — breaking down barriers to full participation in church life and Christian spirituality. St Aidan’s describes itself as a NeuroChurch, shaping worship and community life to support clarity, flexibility, and belonging.

Glen approaches faith through a neurodiverse lens, informed by his lived experience as an autistic person with ADHD and a significant trauma background. This shapes his conviction that people encounter God in different ways, and that the Church must make room for difference.

He is committed to church spaces that are clear, grounded, and welcoming, where faith is practised as a shared journey rather than a performance.

Glen is married and a parent, and family life provides an important grounding for his ministry.
