Get Involved

It's our enormous family of staff, volunteers and supporters from across the world who help to keep our Cathedral running smoothly for 365 days per year. 

There are lots of ways you get involved

Give to Lichfield Cathedral

It costs approximately £5,000 per day to keep Lichfield Cathedral open to visitors and as a place of worship. There are a number of ways you can give to the Cathedral, including planned giving, donating to our JustGiving page, leaving a bequest to the Cathedral and more.

Volunteer with Us

We're incredibly grateful for our volunteers (over 400 of them!). Without them, the Cathedral wouldn't be what it is today. We have a wide range of volunteer opportunities available, including flower arranging, welcoming visitors, volunteering in the shop or cafe, ringing the bells, helping in the office and more.
