The
Friends of Bradford Cathedral
is a Registered Charity (no: 1049398) and exists
to bring together in fellowshipall those who care for the Cathedral,
to support the Cathedral and its staff through prayer for its work,
and through fund-raising for special projects as well as upkeep and
maintenance.
Our patron is the Bishop of Bradford, the President is the Dean of Bradford,
and Canon Derek Jackson and Sir James Hill are Vice Presidents.
We have supported the production of a new Cathedral Guide
Book, the provision of ramps enabling access for the disabled to some
parts of the Cathedral interior which have steps, and the installation
of a new range of organ pipes. We are committed to the improvement of
display facilities for the welcome of visitors and for work with schools,
both of which are important features of the Cathedral’s ministry.
We welcome donations, particularly through Gift Aid if appropriate,
bequests and legacies, and fund-raising ideas.
We are also looking for materials to help us to compile
a history of the Cathedral Friends.
There is something for everyone, and we invite you to
join the Friends now and help us to fresh witness in the 21st century.
We have members not just from the Cathedral congregation but throughout
the Diocese, in various parts of the United
Kingdom and
as far afield as New Zealand.
