GENERAL

HERITAGE FESTIVAL - the annual Heritage Festival will be taking place this year from Friday through to Sunday, 19th – 21st June, with Friday being Schools’ Day. As part of the Festival, there will be jousting held in the Galilee Court in front of the Cathedral! There will be many other events, musicians, plays, and plenty of re-enactors wandering around the city centre. As usual the Cathedral will have a big part to play. There will be knights and their war horses camping in the Bishop’s garden, and Romans in the Dean’s garden. David Starkey will be here on Saturday evening to give a talk on the Magna Carta, which will be celebrating its 800th anniversary this year. All of this will require many volunteers to make the weekend a success. Here are some of the roles that will be needed:  Wandering Greeters – Volunteers will be needed to walk around the Galilee Court in front of the Cathedral, and outside the Norman Arch, to hand out flyers listing the weekend’s events at the Cathedral and to encourage people to go inside.  School Day Assistants – We are expecting 12-14 school groups, who will follow a trail to various encampments, learning about different periods in our history. They will have lunch in the Nave and will have a chance to meet the knights. A volunteer will be needed to accompany each school group to make sure they move smoothly through the trail.

We hope you will help! If you would like to volunteer for this fun event, please contact Lisa on 01733 355316 or email [email protected]
