Revd Huw Thomas started his working life as an inner city youth worker in Wythenshawe. After a number of years wrestling with his calling, he eventually starting his training to become a priest by attending Queen's Theological College in Birmingham.
​Huw started his theological life working in Salford before coming to serve St Michael's Church, Flixton. He loves to help other people and this is demonstrated by the continuance of his work as a Chaplain at HMP Manchester.

He has a son, Billy, who attends St Michael's School, where Huw is also a governor. Sadly, his wife Natalie died shortly after his induction as the priest in charge at St Michael's Church. A massive football fan, particularly of Manchester United, he also plays golf regularly and is an amateur DJ.
