Please RSVP to [email protected] The Very Reverend Nicholas Papadopulos was installed as the 81st Dean of Salisbury in September 2018. As Dean, he leads the life and work of Salisbury Cathedral, and chairs the Chapter, which is the Cathedral’s governing and strategic body. As senior priest of the Diocese he shares in the oversight of the Diocese with the Bishop and members of his staff.
Nick grew up in Kent and worked for seven years as a barrister specializing in criminal law, both defending and prosecuting. He was ordained in the Diocese of Portsmouth in 1999 (deacon) and 2000 (priest), serving his curacy in the inner-city parish of St Mark, Portsea. He arrived in Salisbury for the first time in 2002 and worked for nearly five years as chaplain and press officer to Bishop David Stancliffe. He was appointed Vicar of St Peter’s Eaton Square, London, in 2007 and then moved to Canterbury Cathedral as Canon Treasurer and Director of Initial Ministerial Education for the Diocese. He is married to Heather, a circuit judge, and they have two adult children. Between January and April 2024 Nick spent three months’ sabbatical leave volunteering in occupied East Jerusalem with the World Council of Churches’ Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel, which he describes as ‘an overwhelming experience’. He monitored human rights, visited holy sites, worshipped in different churches, spoke with many people and many organizations, lived through the Muslim observance of Ramadan, and celebrated Holy Week and Easter in the city where Jesus died and rose again – all against the merciless backdrop of the war in Gaza.
