The Friends’ Calendar
The Friends have a busy events programme which includes day trips as well as events within The Precincts.
Recently we have enjoyed outings to the theatre, Windsor Castle and St George’s Chapel, and Leeds Castle. Within The Precincts we have an on-going programme of afternoon talks, quizzes, behind-the-scenes tours, and social gatherings in the Cathedral Lodge.
Two highlights of The Friends’ year are Friends’ Day (held in the summer) and our own Christmas Carol Service and Dinner.
