Membership of the Friends is very widespread. Members not only come from the diocese, but from all over England and indeed from all over the world. They join to establish a link with this fine Cathedral and make regular financial contributions towards its upkeep.
All Friends of the Cathedral receive a December Newsletter followed by an Annual Report in May which, in addition to articles relating to the life of the Cathedral, gives information on current projects, members news, and details of the annual Friends’ Festival in June.
