Elder Dave Holland has been on the road with Christ since 1967 having become a Christian through the ministry of Lansdowne Baptist Church. Since then he has been involved in a number of roles: Youth Ministry leadership, Deacon, Pastor and latterly Elder. Richmond Park Church was founded in his home in 1981 and eventually after a number of stages moved to the present location in Boscombe. Dave's passion is to see people becoming Christians and then going on to follow Christ in a daily life which glorifies God. He is very ably supported by his wife Hae Sook who is from South Korea and has four daughters and three grand-daughters. Dave enjoys most sports, gardening and generally relaxing yet his great desire is to "finish the race well" and to see other Christians do the same.

Elder Olaf Hahn became a Christian in 1986 in South Wales. He moved from there to Bournemouth in 2008 and joined Richmond Park Church the same year. His vision and desire is to see people becoming Christians and to strengthen them in following Christ in their daily life. Olaf joined the leadership as an Elder, Treasurer and Trustee in 2010. He enjoys long walks in the country side and generally keeping fit.
