Katy Magdalene Price was born in Manchester in 1983 and brought up in the Peak District, where she still goes regularly for a dose of wilderness. She was the first person from her local school to go to Oxford, where she studied history and met her husband Laurence. After graduation, she took a job at a small public sector organisation in Cheshire, where she spent five years working in a variety of policy, guidance and training roles. During the last two years there she developed a five-session training course in Freedom of Information law, along with a 120-page workbook. Her last task before she left was to write the new Guide to Freedom of Information for public authorities. She was baptised as a Christian in 2008. Having been brought up an atheist, she says it has been a rather rambling spiritual journey, taking in everything from a Congregationalist chapel to the Latin Mass, but she's found most strength in monastic spirituality. She was selected for ordination training in 2011, and is now spending three years at the College of the Resurrection, Mirfield, living and training alongside approximately 30 ordinands and 20 monastic Brothers.
