Making a difference
The support of our Patrons ensures we can continue welcoming visitors to this most special of places.
Music
Your support allows us to continue the Cathedral’s choral and musical tradition. In return, Patrons enjoy priority booking for a number of concerts.
Worship
We have Patrons who join because of their faith, their wish to share God’s love or their love of Durham Cathedral. You help us facilitate 1,400 services every year.
Exhibitions
We simply couldn’t create exhibitions like Open Treasure without you. Patrons' ongoing support allows us to stage a rolling programme of exhibitions.
Conservation
You help us preserve unique buildings and collections, our precincts and the wooded riverbanks that give the Cathedral its beautiful setting.
Learning and discovery
Patron support helps our Learning Team expand its award-winning learning programme. This allows more young children, families, schools and adults from across the region to be inspired by their local heritage.
