Early life


Hayward was born in Tooting, London into a Methodist family.[2] His father, David Hayward, was a printer and church organist. He was educated at Tooting Bec Grammar School (now Ernest Bevin College) and developed a talent for painting and drawing. After school, he enrolled at St Martin's School of Art.[3]

After leaving St. Martin's, Hayward received an offer from Royal College of Art, but he instead joined Faith Craft, a company that designed ecclesiastical furniture. He remained there for 18 years before setting up his own practice as a stained glass artist. His first major commission was a set of ruined windows of the Christopher Wren church, St Mary-le-Bow, which had been damaged in the Second World War.
