We see this new senior role as vital to building up the capacity and sustainability of the cathedral’s ministry, and even more so as we emerge from some of the most challenging months the nation has known in peacetime for several generations. Wakefield Cathedral is not wealthy. In common with its sister cathedrals, it receives no statutory funding and is dependent on generating its own income to support its work. We are fortunate to receive discretionary funding from the Church Commissioners which covers around 30% of our current annual expenditure; the remainder is drawn from voluntary congregational giving, donations, grant applications, fundraising and income generated from events. The person appointed will undoubtedly need resilience and persistence as well as experience. They will also be joining a team of people fully committed to the flourishing of the cathedral’s ministry at the heart of the city and the wider Diocese of Leeds. I hope that the pack stimulates you to consider applying, and we look forward to hearing from you. The Very Revd Simon Cowling Dean of Wakefield Joyful – Generous – Inclusive 2 Application Pack – Income & Funding Manager The Cathedral The Cathedral stands on the site of a Saxon church in the centre of Wakefield.

  • REACHING out a Celebration of the Work of the Choir Schools’ Association
    REACHING OUT A celebration of the work of the Choir Schools’ Association The Choir Schools’ Association represents 46 schools attached to cathedrals, churches and college chapels educating some 25,000 children. A further 13 cathedral foundations, who draw their choristers from local schools, hold associate membership. In total CSA members look after nearly 1700 boy and girl choristers. Some schools cater for children up to 13. Others are junior schools attached to senior schools through to 18. Many are Church of England but the Roman Catholic, Scottish and Welsh churches are all represented. Most choir schools are independent but five of the country’s finest maintained schools are CSA members. Being a chorister is a huge commitment for children and parents alike. In exchange for their singing they receive an excellent musical training and first-class academic and all-round education. They acquire self- discipline and a passion for music which stay with them for the rest of their lives.

Jerry Lepine, Dean of Bradford, will be marking this year’s ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ by visiting and praying at the three Cathedrals in the Diocese of Leeds as part of Bradford Cathedral’s Centenary celebrations.

The period of ‘Thy Kingdom Come’ is a global prayer movement that invites Christians around the world to pray for more people to come to know Jesus. What started in 2016 as an invitation from the Archbishops of Canterbury and York to the Church of England has grown into an international and ecumenical call to prayer. Dean Jerry says: "As part of Bradford Cathedral's Centenary I am looking forward to praying in each of the three Cathedrals in this Diocese during Thy Kingdom Come.

  • Wakefield Cathedral: Nave and Quire Roof Repairs (1 of 3 Projects Funded) Awarded £220,000 in November 2014
    Wakefield Cathedral: Nave and Quire Roof Repairs (1 of 3 projects funded) Awarded £220,000 in November 2014 The need The lead roofs of the nave and quire, installed around 1933, were leaking. The 2013 Quinquennial Inspection had highlighted a significant number of splits in the leadwork. Their condition worsened significantly over the winter of 2013-2014. Very cold weather before Christmas meant the leadwork became even more brittle and cracked further. This was then followed by the wettest period of weather over a 6- to 8-week period anybody could remember. The result was significant water penetration through the roof coverings, particularly the nave roof, necessitating buckets to collect drips within the nave, where new Work in progress on the nave roof. Photo credit: Wakefield lighting, floor and redecoration had recently been Cathedral. carried out as part of a £3 million project supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund. Emergency patching works with flashband were undertaken, during which far more splits in the lead were discovered than had been identified only a few months previously. The roof coverings needed urgent replacement if the mediaeval timber ceilings in the quire and roof bosses in the nave were not to be put at immediate risk of damage and loss. The failure of the roof coverings over such a short period of time was assessed as the most significant risk to the Cathedral’s historic fabric at the time of application. Outcomes The mediaeval timber ceilings in the quire and roof bosses in the nave are no longer at risk. Water can no longer penetrate so the new lighting, flooring and decoration are no longer threatened.
