Congregational Giving

For members of the congregation, giving is essential to support the day to day running of our Cathedral. It is also an important part of Christian faith and commitment.

Congregational giving provides vital income which supports the everyday work and mission of the Cathedral. It keeps the place warm and well lit, contributes to the cost of our two Minor Canons and enables our ministry to young and old alike.

As members of our community, we ask:

• Current givers: please consider your current giving. If all those currently giving increased their contribution by at least £5 per month, it would produce an increased income for us of at least £2,500 per month.
• Those who do not currently give regularly: please consider doing so. It makes your giving to the Cathedral fully automated and makes it easier for us to plan the Cathedral’s finances. A regular contribution of £25 a month - or whatever level you want - from everyone would make a real difference.
• Those who are not giving by Direct Debit via the new Parish Giving Scheme: please do so. If you are currently giving regularly, for example, by standing order, please think about giving by Direct Debit through this new diocesan giving scheme, as it is both more efficient and allows you to automatically add an inflation uplift if you wish.

If you have questions about your giving, please contact any member of Clergy or the Congregational Giving Team, via the pigeon holes.

Thank you to all those who support our mission.
