Record numbers of young people were accepted to train as Church of England ministers, figures reveal.

New statistics for 2012 show that the number of young people (under 30s) accepted for training for the Church of England ministry last year was 113 - 22 per cent of the total.

That is the highest number in 20 years and is the same as the statistics for the Diocese of Lichfield.
