Justin Welby
Justin Welby served as the Archbishop of Canterbury, the spiritual leader of the worldwide Anglican Communion, from 2013 until his recent resignation in November 2023. His tenure was marked by significant challenges, including the Church of England's response to historical sexual abuse scandals. Welby's decision to step down followed the findings of the Makin Review, which criticized his failure to act on allegations of abuse linked to the Church, particularly those involving Christian camp leader John Smyth.
