A LAY pastor and school counsellor has admitted abusing a 14-year-old boy.

James Hennah, aged 39, was also a magistrate before being suspended when the allegations came to light in October.

He admitted two offences of sexually touching a child and one of voyeurism when he appeared before Exeter Crown Court yesterday.

Hennah, of Rossiter’s Lane, St George, was a pastor with the Bristol Community Church, where he ran their Energy programme targeted at young people. The law graduate was a counsellor at two secondary schools and at Bristol University, where he also taught counselling.
