The Interim Dean of Chichester, the Reverend Canon Simon Holland, has been appointed as the Rector of Harting with Elsted and Treyford cum Didling.
Canon Simon will take up his new role this Summer, standing down from his current position in mid-July this year.
Canon Simon has been serving the Cathedral community as Interim Dean since his installation in April 2023, and through his leadership and ministry, has enabled a sense of continuity and flourishing ahead of a new Dean being appointed. Prior to this, as Rector of St Paul's Chichester with Westhampnett, he served as the College of Canons’ representative on the Cathedral’s Chapter.
The Cathedral Chapter would like to thank Canon Simon, his wife Fiona and their family for their contribution to Cathedral life, and invite you to join us in praying for them as they embark on this new journey in Harting with Elsted and Treyford cum Didling.
