Rev Michael Sansom trained for ordination in Durham after teaching in Kenya was a curate in Sheffield, then spent twelve years as tutor, director of studies and vice principal at Ridley Hall in Cambridge, and twenty two years as Director of Ordinands in the Diocese of St Albans combined with being a residentiary canon at the cathedral. I continue to be involved with training ordinands in retirement. I’m married to Daphne, who was a nurse and we have two adult children and four grandchildren.
