Who we are
Fr Ian wanted to be a priest from the age of five and every time he offers Mass he thanks God for granting him this gift.
Born in the Midlands, Fr Ian has lived in Salford Diocese since he was eleven apart from seven years spent in Rome, preparing for his ordination.
He really enjoys cooking, opera, gardening and trying to bring order to chaos. Growth in the knowledge and love of God is where he finds meaning and purpose.
Dominic Evangelisation and Catechesis, co-ordinates the areas of 'Evangelisation and Catechesis in the parish.

He particularly enjoys travelling, exploring new cultures and languages, as well as reading, and learning new skills.
