Three senior clergy in the Diocese of Exeter have been made prebendaries of Exeter Cathedral, in recognition of their service to the Church in Devon.

Revd Nick Martin, Karl Freeman and Andrew Jones will become prebendaries of the Cathedral - an honorary role, recognised throughout the Church of England, which makes them a part of the College of Canons, a body which advises the Cathedral on a wide variety of matters at the request of the Dean and Chapter.

They will continue in their current posts. Revd Nick Martin is chaplain at Dartmoor prison, Revd Karl Freeman is Team Rector in the Benefice of North Sutton and Revd Andrew Jones Priest in Charge in the Benefice of Oakmoor.

The Bishop of Exeter, Rt Revd Michael Langrish, said: “All three have had distinguished ministries, in parish life and in Nick’s case in prison chaplaincies, and this is a recognition of their service to the people of Devon.”
