With a little help from our Friends

You can make a difference

You can support the Cathedral and its life in many ways. These pages will give you an indication of some of the ways you can support us financially, or - just as importantly - with voluntary help.

We are all proud of our Cathedral, the work that we do, and the heritage we are helping to preserve - your help is very welcome and much appreciated.

We Rely on Your Support

Ripon Cathedral has been a centre of Christian faith and practice for over 1300 years! It provides spiritual sanctuary, refreshment and inspiration to the many thousands of people who come here every year.

Sadly, however, the cost of fulfilling this role increases every year. Without generous benefactors we would be unable to offer this ministry of hospitality, which is so central to our life and purpose. Your help is vital.

There are so many ways you can help us by suporting the Cathedral.

Why not attend a fundraising event, or become a Patron or Music Custodian? If you wish to suport a specific project, you can make a donation directly to the Music Foundation or the Fabric Fund.


By supporting the work of the Cathedral, you can secure this magnificent place, and all the tradition and heritage it represents, for the benefit of future generations to enjoy.
