Another attempt to appoint a Bishop of Bangor

from Religion Media Centre

Another attempt to appoint the next Bishop of Bangor is to be made by the Church in Wales electoral college at a meeting on 16 – 18 June. The last bishop, Andy John, left in July 2025 after the publication of two reports into Bangor Cathedral which described weak governance of finances, a culture where “sexual boundaries seemed blurred” and excessive drinking. A process to choose an interim bishop failed to appoint, and the church will now select a permanent replacement.
