Emma Ineson

The Revd Dr Emma Ineson is Bishop of Penrith. She was formerly Principal of Trinity College, Bristol, where she taught practical theology and spirituality, and Chaplain at the Lee Abbey community. These roles have helped her understand and appreciate the breadth and depth of the Church and, being married to a vicar, she has seen first-hand both the joys and challenges of parish ministry on the ground. Emma has been a member of General Synod since 2010. She is chair of the TEI principals’ steering group, a Member of the Church of England Evangelical Council, a Vice-president of CPAS and a member of the Faith and Order Commission. She is on the 2020 Lambeth Conference Design Group.
