He professed solemn religious vows as a full and permanent member of the Order on 17 September 1966.[1] He was ordained as a Catholic priest at the chapel of Austin Friars School in the City of Carlisle on 16 September 1971.[2]
In 2008, Campbell was appointed by Pope Benedict XVI as the coadjutor bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lancaster. For this office he was ordained a bishop by the then Bishop of Lancaster, Patrick O'Donoghue. He succeeded Bishop O'Donoghue on 1 May 2009.
