The Church of England’s first openly non-binary priest has explained how they felt they had to choose between their "calling" and “gender identity”.
Bingo Allison, who lives in Norris Green, was invited onto ITV’s This Morning to discuss their journey of self-discovery after the ECHO’s initial article went global.
The 36-year-old, who is gender-queer, attends schools and are visible across West Derby Deanery - where they work - in the hope they can inspire others who find themselves in a similar situation to what they were once in. However, prior to this, Bingo went through years of conflicting thoughts regarding their gender identity and religious beliefs.
