Our ears and hearts are open to everyone during these turbulent times, especially to those who want to talk about something that is troubling them or are feeling lonely.

Connecting with Durham Cathedral

We're aware that the coronavirus pandemic may have a significant impact on our community, especially during this period when Durham Cathedral is closed and many may feel anxious or distressed. To help our local congregation and our online audience across the world feel part of the cathedral's community we're continuing to develop online worship resources, including daily livestreams and downloadable resources for private prayer.
