Bishop Richard Moth to be next Archbishop of Westminster

We send our warmest congratulations to Bishop Richard Moth on the news that he has been chosen by Pope Leo to serve as the next Archbishop of Westminster.

We are hugely grateful to Bishop Moth for his support for the work of Pact and prison chaplains in his role as Bishop of Arundel and Brighton, and as the Liaison Bishop for Prisons for the Catholic Bishops Conference of England and Wales.

We also wish to thank Cardinal Vincent, the outgoing Archbishop of Westminster, for his great leadership, and for all of his support and encouragement whilst acting as the President of Pact.
