Archway Methodist Church Treasurer Swindled Thousands

The treasurer of Archway Methodist Church has received a suspended prison sentence after swindling thousands of pounds.

Sandra Awere, 59, of Despard Road, Archway was sentenced at Wood Green Crown Court.

She originally appeared at Highbury Corner Magistrates Court charged with fraud by abuse of position.

It was said between April 10, 2011 and July 20, 2016 she dishonestly abused that position to make a gain, namely £60,778.94 for herself and cause loss to the church.

Awere was sentenced to two years imprisonment, suspended for two years and was ordered to pay 60 hours community service and pay £3,600 compensation to the church.
