The new Bishop of Truro is expected to be announced later.

Downing Street is due to name the person who will lead the Church of England in Cornwall at 10:00.

The new bishop will then be introduced to members of the congregation at St Cuby Church in Tregony by the Bishop of St Germans, the Right Reverend Chris Goldsmith, shortly after.

Cornwall has been without its diocesan bishop since the former Bishop of Truro, the Right Reverend Tim Thornton left a year ago to become the Bishop of Lambeth working as the episcopal chief of staff to the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby.

The new bishop will lead over 300 churches in more than 200 parishes in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly and two parishes in Devon.

A 14-year-old boy had to be rescued by lifeguards after he was trapped in a 6ft (1.8m) hole on Fistral Beach in Newquay.

The teenager, who dug the pit with a friend on Wednesday afternoon, was rescued in a "delicate" operation.

The RNLI said firefighters and coastguards helped with the rescue which was "quite delicate" because at any point the hole could have collapsed and made the situation worse.

The boy was checked over by paramedics after being extracted and was unharmed. He returned to thank the lifeguards about 30 minutes later.
