Although it is rooted in history, the Cathedral is not a museum but a vibrant, living community which depends on the goodwill and generosity of the many volunteers who work alongside the Clergy and Staff every day and in many different ways.
From the shop to stewarding, flower arranging to bell ringing, serving at the altars to leading the Sunday School, there are many opportunities to get involved and contribute to the life of the Cathedral Community.
