Go online - and get to know the Archbishops
The Archbishops of Canterbury and York, Dr Rowan Williams and Dr John Sentamu, have launched new websites to help project their beliefs, activities and personalities to a wider audience.
To do so, they are using the current best in web technology and design. The design themes of each site help complement the public profile of both Archbishops, with the Archbishop of Canterbury’s site using shades of contemplative blue and grey, whilst the Archbishop of York features vibrant reds.
Both Archbishops have personal pages covering their biographies and background on personal interests - such as poetry and Russian literature for Rowan and York City FC for John! (There is also a page on what Archbishop Rowan actually said in that lecture!)
A Lambeth Palace spokesperson said: “Through our new websites the Archbishops will be able to reach out to fresh audiences through use of video, audio and other facilities.” The websites are: www.archbishopofcanterbury.org and www.archbishopofyork.org
