Richard Sutcliffe Author

The Revd Richard Sutcliffe is a part-time priest in the Church of England, living in a small village in Hampshire. After leaving university and qualifying as an accountant, he worked for most of his career in London as a policy maker in Financial Regulation. After the pandemic, he decided to take early retirement from his life in London and to enjoy a quieter life in the countryside, with his family and his dogs.

Richard wrote Finding Mac as a way to record and share stories with his family and friends, and to help the memories of Mac to live on. He has published an article in the Church Times about being a bereaved father and also took part in a conversation for the Radio 4 programme The Listening Project.

He now works part-time in his local churches as part of a wider ministry team. This gives him plenty of time to spend with his sister, his nephews and their growing families, and to indulge in his interest in collecting art.
