  • Fr Nigel Palmer ssc

    Assistant Curate

    Fr Nigel was a solicitor for many years in the world of film and television; he worked in Grays Inn Road for twenty years, and used to drop in to Holy Redeemer on occasion—he still preserves an prayer card from those days, which he has always treasured in his wallet. He gave up the law in 2012, and read for a Theology degree at St Stephen’s House, Oxford. (His previous degree was in English Language and Literature.).

    Fr Nigel served as curate at S. Benet’s, Kentish Town and moved to St Michael & All Angels, Croydon in 2020 where he assisted until his arrival at Holy Redeemer in 2024..

    When he is not in the pulpit or at the altar, Fr Nigel hugely enjoys classical music, history, reading theatre going and art exhibitions, and travel.
