Distinguished Guests visit College at CRE

Adrian Plass took time out from his busy schedule at the Christian Resources Exhibition to join hundreds keen to learn more about life at the College.

“The College is doing a great job and I am keen to visit it as soon as I can,” he said. The Christian writer, broadcaster and humourist came to the College stand during a day of interviews, soundbites, a seminar and a book-signing.

“My wife and I are really concerned that those retiring from ministry should receive the best possible care and I am looking forward to seeing at first hand the College’s wonderful work,” he enthused.

The Warden meets Fr Neil Down

Another famous visitor was the Revd Neil Down (right).

The well known media personality was accompanied by his entourage, Peter and Diane Hellyer from One Way UK.

As well as meeting the Warden, Fr Down filmed part of his eagerly awaited documentary about CRE at our stand. “You may think I’m too young to be looking at a place to retire,” he said, “but what I say is: it’s never too soon to plan!”

Peter and Diane are going to bring Fr Down along with some of his other colleagues to visit the College later in the year.
