The Most Rev Dr Idris Jones and his wife Alison at University of Wales, Lampeter
The Most Rev Dr Idris Jones, Bishop of Glasgow & Galloway and Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church, was awarded an Honorary Fellowship by the University of Wales, Lampeter during the University's Degree Day ceremonies on Friday 6 July. The fellowship honours individuals who have made a distinctive contribution to their field or to public life.
After receiving the Fellowship, The Most Rev Dr Idris Jones says "To be honoured by my own University is a privilege that I find almost impossible to express. Lampeter was a seminal influence on my life and I remain profoundly grateful for all that I was given in the course of the 'Lampeter experience'. Today Lampeter continues to grow and develop and pioneer new access to learning. I am proud to have been given a new connection with an institution that is in the forefront of provision of tertiary education."
