The first black woman to become a Church of England bishop will be consecrated during a ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral.
In June it was announced chaplain to the speaker of the house, The Rev Dr Rose Hudson-Wilkin, will be the new Bishop of Dover.
She said she feels a “bit like a bride” ahead of Tuesday’s consecration.
