A man who was sexually abused as a child by a Church of England priest has confronted his past and says he can finally move forward with his life.
Brian Bond, 49, was born in Birmingham but placed into foster care in Eastbourne, East Sussex, as a baby in 1965 by his single mother.
However, he said his formative years were far from happy, with mistreatment from his foster mother leaving him psychologically and physically abused.
At the age of eight, Mr Bond came into contact with the Reverend Roy Cotton, a Church of England priest who he met through a church connected to his primary school.
