Dr Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Guli Francis-Dehqani, Bishop of Chelmsford Dr Nick Spencer, senior fellow at the think tank Theos Dr Anna Rowlands, St Hilda Associate Professor of Catholic Social Thought & Practice in the Department of Theology and Religion at Durham University
