Cathedral director of music ‘was bullied by the bishop’

Cathedral director of music ‘was bullied by the bishop’

The suspended Bishop of Aberdeen and Orkney, Anne Dyer, is facing a Clergy Disciplinary Tribunal in Edinburgh for behaviour unbecoming of a cleric and likely to bring the church into disrepute.

Among the allegations to be considered, we understand, is that Ms Dyer bullied the cathedral Director of Music, Christopher Cromar, out of his position in 2022.

Ms Dyer claims she is the victim of a smear campaign by ‘a small handful’ of social conservatives.
