Our pilgrimage to Winchester is progressing well. Sadly we will not be able to walk this weekend due to expected high temperatures. But we'll be walking again in September starting at Guildford and heading to Farnham.

In the meantime we hope you enjoy this warm and sunny August

@SouthwarkCofE @BishopSouthwark @Southwarkcathed So lovely to hear our Trustee and long-time Friend, Guy Rowston, has been awarded the Lancelot Andrewes Medal. Congratulations

Conservation begins today on the Cathedral’s collection of Lancelot Andrewes books.  Cleaning and stabilising first, then protected within its own casing.

“Heritage to be marketed” or “flagships of the spirit, places of Christian study + encounter.” Canon Barry Forrester OBE asks us to be mindful of cathedrals’ role when implementing #CathedralsMeasures

This was a really fun set to write — as it’s in honor of @deansouthwark, I aimed for a kind of joyful, ebullient and bright setting…the image below being the only calm moment...
