The Cathedral is a corporate body comprising the Chapter, the College of Canons and the Cathedral Council. It is a legal entity regulated by statute, principally the Cathedrals Measure 1999. This establishes the basic principles with which all Church of England cathedrals must comply. The Cathedrals Measure requires each cathedral to produce its own statutes which apply the principles of the Measure according to local or historic use, and in particular specify the functions and responsibilities of individuals, both clerical and lay, and establish the governance and administrative framework. The governing statutes of the Cathedral are the Salisbury Cathedral Constitution and Statutes dated 1st July 2001. Under these statutes, the governing body of the Cathedral is the Chapter, which is supported by a number of other bodies and individuals as set out in this directory. Further information about the governance of the Cathedral is given in the Report of Chapter. The address of the Cathedral is 6 The Close, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP1 2EF.

Worship & Prayer The 2019/2020 year saw a number of changes and achievements. A new Canon Precentor was welcomed in May 2019 following an external recruitment process. The clergy team saw additional changes later in the year with the appointment of a new Vicar of the Close and the creation of a new post for the Cathedral – Minor Canon for Young People. Unfortunately, due to the outbreak of the global health pandemic, Covid19, the arrival of the Vicar of the Close had to be delayed. Throughout 2019 the Cathedral’s Father Willis Organ was out of commission due to a major restoration project. This presented both challenges and opportunities in terms of worship. The Director of Music and Assistant Director of Music oversaw the provision of music without the Cathedral organ and the Quire was inaccessible at different times. It is a tribute to all involved that the project proceeded so smoothly; the Development Team secured the majority of the £714,000 required to complete the work and new ways of worshipping were embraced. The restored Organ was installed just ahead of lockdown in early 2020. The majority of events that had been planned to celebrate the completion of the work had to be postponed, but nevertheless the restoration was a major achievement. Discussions have also continued through the year on possible designs for new liturgical furniture for the Trinity Chapel and Spire Crossing. This project continues and will take some time before it can be realised due to cost and the process of securing an agreed design which is approved by the Cathedrals Fabric Commission for England. It was a pleasure to host a number of special services during the year. In particular the Armed Forces Day Service in 2019 and a Service of Celebration for the Royal Corps of Signals in January 2020. It was also a privilege to be able to host a Golden Jubilee Retirement mass for Father Michael Fitzpatrick in June 2019 and La Folia’s Evening Songs in July 2019. Reaching Further A notable achievement during the year was the increase in partnership working with many organisations in the City and Wiltshire Council. The Council established a Recovery Plan in response to the nerve agent attack in the City during 2018 and Cathedral staff were members of the different workstreams associated with this. The Cathedral also established a Project Group to oversee plans for the 800th anniversary of the Cathedral’s foundation and the subsequent development of the City. In preparation for this we led discussions with the Salisbury Business Improvement District, Wiltshire and Swindon Sports Partnership, Wiltshire Creative, Wiltshire Council and the City Council amongst others. It was a huge disappointment that the majority of the celebrations could not take place because of Covid19, however there were considerable benefits from the Cathedral facilitating collaboration with partners and closer working between the different organisations. Prior to the impact of the health pandemic, the Cathedral was able to produce a Light and Sound celebration in February 2020. This was a new and exciting activity for the Cathedral working in partnership with Peter Walker, and it sold out demonstrating the future potential of such events. Early 2020 also saw the installation of the largest Art Exhibition the Cathedral has ever had with twenty pieces of contemporary art exhibited in the Cathedral and the Close. The curation of this exhibition was undertaken by the Cathedral’s visual arts curator, Jacquiline Cresswell, to whom we are grateful. As always, we have continued to review what we offer to the many visitors who come to the Cathedral. In support of this we worked with an external consultant to develop an Interpretation Strategy. During the year we offered a number of events to attract visitors, an exhibition to explain the organ restoration work and continued our community outreach through the education programme and connections with other organisations such as Erlestoke Prison. 5 SALISBURY CATHEDRAL YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2020 It was very rewarding to see visitor numbers beginning to return to similar levels as we had received prior to the nerve agent attack in 2018. The financial year ended with a new challenge in Covid19, however we recognise the hard work and achievements of our staff prior to this. An important relationship within our wider life is with Salisbury Cathedral School.

  • The Parish Church of St
    The Parish Church of St. Michael the Archangel, Mere Meeting of the Parochial Church Council with Archdeacon Alan Jeans held on Tuesday 6 July at 3pm in The Grove Buildings 1. Opening: Jean opened the meeting with a prayer. 2. Present: Archdeacon Alan Jeans, Hamish Bell, Judy Bickerstaff, Barry Clarke, Sherry Dixon, Derek Fisher, Jane Hurd, Pat Isom, Jean Knapp, Isabel Page, John Page, Julia Rankin, Nicky Ravenhill (notes), Kit Stallard, Lesley Traves, Richard Wilson. Apologies: Christine Marsh. 3. Jean Knapp welcomed The Venerable Alan Jeans, Archdeacon of Sarum to the meeting and congratulated him on his recent award of the MBE. Archdeacon Alan Jeans outlined his work with the Bishops of Salisbury and Ramsbury and his pastoral oversight over 100 parishes and 60 clergy across a large area of the Diocese. Archdeacon Jeans welcomed an open agenda and explained he was very happy to discuss Mere and PCC business, and would be dealing with the vacancy/future options as a whole Benefice as he was legally obliged to do. He will be meeting with the PCC of Maiden Bradley next week and is to get a meeting with the West Knoyle PCC in the diary. There is also an aspiration to meet with the Churchwardens and possibly the Treasurers of the three PCC’s in the future. Archdeacon Jeans thanked the PCC for the paper sent to him in advance, which included some helpful information for him and also some assumptions to address. With a potential deficit of £3.5m following a £1.5m deficit at the end of 2020, alongside a £2.5m Covid-19 loan drawn down to start to repay in September, there is no option to “do nothing”.
