In 1997 I became the Bishop of Salford and worked with Revd O'Sullivan to develop a way forward for our diocese. He became the child protection coordinator for the diocese and won the trust and respect of many whom he served in this work, not least his brother priests. His experiences in this ministry led him to undertake research on the effect of the criminal actions of some of their brother priests on their own lives and ministry. This book gives you the opportunity to read this story. Rt Rev Terence J. Brain Emeritus Bishop of Salford This is a very attractive and well-researched book on safeguarding which should be very popular with the clergy and with the wider Church. Barry O'Sullivan is highly regarded for his safeguarding work in the Church in England and Wales. Rt Rev Peter Doyle Bishop of Northampton
